Description
Paperback cover has some wear. Pages are clean and the binding is secure.
This vintage paperback offers a fascinating glimpse into the religious education of young children in the mid-20th century. Published in the 1950s, “When They Are Three” by Sara G. Klein reflects the era’s emphasis on instilling Christian values from an early age. Klein, a respected educator and author of several books on childhood religious development, draws upon her expertise to provide guidance for parents and church leaders working with nursery-aged children.
The book’s well-preserved interior suggests it was a cherished resource, likely referenced by Sunday school teachers and parents seeking age-appropriate lessons and activities. Its worn cover hints at frequent use, perhaps passed between families or borrowed from church libraries. For collectors interested in vintage children’s literature or the history of religious education, this humble volume offers a window into the spiritual upbringing of the Baby Boomer generation. Readers will gain insights into the era’s cultural norms and the role of religion in shaping young minds.
