Christian therapy stories and Bible studies for troubled children are available in this
Free Download Library. The material offered here is for the use of parents, teachers, etc. in helping troubled children, ages 8 through 11. Each story has a corresponding Bible study that helps the teacher to explain Bible truth into the belief system of the child.
The stories are fiction/fantasy. They are not specifically "children's literature," nor are they Bible stories, nor are they "character builders." They are of the genre of literature called "bibliotherapy;" or books that help, and in this case, books that help a child to understand and trust the way God relates and helps, in accordance with His grace covenant.
The material is authored by Ran Butler Stovall, and is drawn from his education and his twenty-five years of experience in clinical counseling ministry. The approach to therapy is cognitive/emotive. Briefly put, changes in thinking can result in changes in emotions. Changes in emotions can result in changes in behaviors. Thus, the belief system of a child can guide the child's life. A confused belief system can cause a child to feel and behave in a troubled way.
