Why did we choose Brave Books?

BRAVE Books is a Christian publishing company that makes books for kids that reinforce biblically-based, foundational values. Before founding BRAVE Books, Dr. Trent Talbot was a practicing ophthalmologist. He became a new dad when his daughter was born in 2020. As he began to look for children’s content for his daughter, he was shocked by the sheer amount of inappropriate entertainment on the market. He saw the need for a brand that parents like him could trust with their children’s imaginations. This idea led him to found BRAVE Books in 2021.
