Unfortunately, many Bibles and Christian material are being pulled off the shelves in China. Please take a minute to pray for China for the Gospel to go forth in spite of what man is trying to do in that nation.

To make it easier for you to know where to go to start building a Chinese Christian library for your kiddos, below are the bookstores to help you do just that.

The Christian bookstores are organized by continent with information on what types of resources they provide. There are more Chinese Christian bookstores out there, but these are the main ones that have a good amount of quality Chinese Christian material geared towards children.

Special thanks to Cindy Ou and Betty Choi for helping me compile this list!
