The Overtly Christian Children’s series is Leland P. Gamson’s faith-based picture book line. The seven books, published between 2020 and 2024, include biblical retellings from animal perspectives (Lokael: The Donkey Who Carried Jesus, Tamim: The Passover Lamb) alongside original stories with Christian themes.
The series name makes the religious content clear upfront, which helps parents and educators find books that match what they are looking for. Stories like Where Is Grandpa? address difficult subjects through a faith lens, while Toby the Lighthouse Keeper and Samuel and the Mystery Puppy wrap Christian messages in adventure plots.
