Susannah Spurgeon’s quiet devotion to giving away books becomes a bright, toddler-sized tale in this charming board book from the Banner of Truth Board Book series. Written for the youngest readers, The Woman Who Loved to Give Books tells, in simple language and vivid scenes, how Mrs. Spurgeon responds when her house is full of books—finding both practical solutions and imaginative ways to share what she loves. Along the way children will spot lions on a shelf, a bird in a cage, and an opal ring, each detail inviting repeated reading and conversation.

Designed especially for little hands and early attention spans, the book uses rhythmic, easy-to-follow sentences and large, engaging illustrations that make each page a discovery. The result is an accessible introduction to the life of a generous Christian woman whose ministry was shaped by a love for Scripture and a desire to spread it widely. Parents, grandparents, and teachers will appreciate how the story seeds gospel-shaped values—generosity, service, and delight in God’s Word—while remaining perfectly suited to storytime with toddlers.

Endorsements from leading voices in contemporary church life underline the series’ value: these board books are praised for being truthful, memorable, and ideal conversation starters that can spark a lifelong curiosity about church history. This attractive, durable board-book edition (ISBN 9781848717268) is a delightful gift for families who want to begin introducing young children to godly models from the past through simple, beautiful storytelling.
