Additional Information

Taste & See books are designed to introduce your baby to the best book ever written. 

Each Taste & See Book is printed on a special textured synthetic material that’s durable enough to not rip or tear. It presents like paper but feels soft to the touch. This makes each Taste & See Book feel special and safe in the hands and mouths of babies and children. We think you’ll enjoy reading it too (and we won’t tell anyone if you sneak a taste too).

Taste & See books are the perfect length for the attention span of the youngest readers, while also being the right length to encourage older toddlers to memorize the verses contained in each book.

Care Instructions

Taste & See Books can go wherever kiddos go, so clean them like you would your littles. Throw them in the bathtub during bath time, or wipe them down with baby wipes for a quick clean on the go. You can also use bottle cleaning wipes, pacifier wipes or breast pump wipes.

While you can't automate cleaning children, you can run Taste & See Books through the dishwasher.

Prop up with the pages open to air dry, or wipe down with paper towels so it’s ready for use again.

What people are saying

I saw your website in The Pour Over's 2023 Christmas gift guide and ordered your set for my 11-month-old godson. His parents said we "won" for best present and that the books are absolutely perfect for him right now. Thank you for making a great product! I hope to buy these in the future for more of the little ones in my life!

Scripture books that your babies can really sink their teeth into. Let your little one chew on the Word of God from their earliest age. Okay, puns aside, these books are simply scripture accompanied with bright illustrations, printed on chewable, bendable, baby-safe paper!

These are my daughter's defacto favorite books. She always destroys the cardboard ones, so we usually try to keep her from overly handling them. But the Taste & See books she can basically use like a toy, since she can't destroy them.

I know lots of moms say, “what should I do? Where should I start?” This would be a great place to start, reading them at night. They're just scripture, washable, chew and rip proof and non toxic so you can get them in those little baby hands and not rip them up. Just really, really cool, a great design.

I just ordered a set of your books to give to a few of my friends with babies. Wow!! I LOVE them. The illustrations are so cute and I love that the text is straight from the Bible. I'm interested to see how the paper holds up. I'm excited to gift these to my friends. 👶🏻 📖

These books are wonderful! I bought the entire series after finding it through The Pour Over gift guide. I have a 4 year old who loves to read books and an 11 month old who loves to eat books... I had originally planned to gift some, but it looks like we might be buying more because we can't part with any!

Gave my friend's baby a Taste & See book over the weekend. He tried biting it a few times to test it out. It passed.

Hi! I just wanted to let you know we were sent your books and my daughter loves them. It's nice to be able to be in the Word so easily!

Taste & See books are right at our son's level and durable enough for him to interact with (most books we have to read to him at arm's length). And the content is top notch!

Listening to Charlie (2) "read" his little sister (4mo) his Taste & See books on our car trip fills my heart with joy!

Amy B.

We bought a set of your books and are enjoying them tremendously. They both are helpful for our grandson, but also encourage us as we read them to him.

The books arrived this afternoon! I am excited to give them to my grand-daughter on Christmas! Merry Christmas to you!!

My son's favorite gift from their baby shower were your books.

Thank you for your precious love for God's Word and getting it into the hands of little ones!
