I've been thinking about it for a while tbh. You're obviously going to struggle to distill, say, dialectical materialism into a kid's book, but worker strength and overthrowing the ruling class is probably doable.
The thing is, most little kids' books don't have an antagonist. They're usually, at most, stories of personal growth against one's own mind or, sometimes, against nature.
I'd say one of the closest I've found is The Day the Crayons Quit.
I saw a video of BJ Novak reading that book- It looks really funny, and def. dependent on the narrator- so good on you for taking it on! Though I am by no means religious, I am fascinated by religion- I will take a look at your other title:)
See if your school library has this one- it's very clever and fun to read-

I love children's books that treat them like young people and don't pander to them, as well as challenge their imagination.
Oh, I <3 looking for books for my kids!! They are 14, 13, 12, 11, and 5. Our son is the youngest, and he loves all the books that his older sisters loved when they were younger. :D
Oh my gosh...Get those kids some books!
I would love this book for our oldest daughter if I win, please.
/u/DrUsual...can you think of any?
Thank you for the contest!

I have this book, The Day the Crayons Quit, on my wishlist for both my kids at home and the kids in my classroom (and, I'll be honest, me). It's awesome and I've been wanting it for a long time.
Thanks for the contest :)

I vote for two $10 items! Somewhere in between one big one and multiple little ones.
don't go talking too loud you'll cause a landslide, Mr. Jones
I'm kind of like you, haven't been around much lately (having a baby drains you from doing much), but I'll enter for the heck of it. I understand if I don't qualify.
The Hobbit Trilogy: Extended Edition because although it's not as epic as LotR it's still great to be back in the world of Middle Earth!
1TB Hard Drive you can never have too much storage space on your PC.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Four-Movie Collection it's such a classic series that everyone should own.
Roku 3 if you love streaming movies / TV shows as much as me then this is a must have.
The Day the Crayons Quit (Book) if you have any kids then this is one of the best selling books. Never hurts to build your collection.
Depends which crayon you ask.
I'm a youth and family program assistant at the library where I work. I could use some kids books! Well, a kids book since we're going for a $10 item and kids books are ridiculously expensive sometimes. I would love to have my own copy of The Day the Crayons Quit. It's always checked out from the library and it'd be nice to have a copy that I can take with me to storytimes without needing to plan it ahead of time. This science experiment book would be awesome, too, if you wanted to gift two people something around $5 each. I'm working on a series of STEAM storytimes. I'm really looking forward to it. This would be a great book to get ideas from.

Good reminder for Bob's Burgers. I've been meaning to get back to that.

Here's some books that we liked around Kindergarten:
Really any Tony Diterlizi, Dave Shannon, or Mo Williams books are good.

I think your daughter might enjoy this book: The Day the Crayons Quit.

You two should read this book together
My daughter was(is) a big fan of Little Blue Truck.
We also like Goodnight Gorilla and Peek a Who
For ones that can grow with her, I'd recommend:
Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus
Press Here
How do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight
Honestly, anything by Mo Willems or Jane Yolen is going to be good! I have some books on my daughter's gift list too.
For more suggestions, a friend of mine is a librarian and has a TON of books pinned on Pinterest. Here's just one of her boards.
For us? My daughter can always use more books. We have a ton, but she loves them. I think I'm most interested in The Day the Crayons Quit for her right now. It looks really good and funny and we like to read a little above her level to her anyway (she's almost 4 so at the bottom of this one.)

Green Eggs and Ham! Thanks for the contest. I love that it revolves around children's books!
This book, The Tickle Monster is absolutely adorable! There are even corresponding Tickle Monster Mitts!
I'd love to win The Day the Crayons Quit for my first graders. This year's groups has a great sense of humor and I think they'd get a kick out of imagining their crayons going on strike!
