In a moving and illustrative way, The Child at Home by Abbott strongly cultivates in children's consciences the need to honor God and their parents. It is a book that promotes the need for sincere obedience, religious truth, genuine piety, biblical character traits, responsibility, and the fear of deceit. The dozens of stories included make it understandable even for very young children, while also retaining the interest of teenagers. Buy this book for each of your children; better yet, read it aloud to them and discuss its content together as a family. — Dr. Joel R. Beeke, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary
