We are fallen beings and learning from mistakes is very important, however, Virtue Chicks aspires to be a different type of story.I believe children have the ability to make good and right choices which is what Virtue Chicks aims to encourage. Children need good role models with high character and virtue to learn from. What about instead of learning what happens after having bad attitudes and making wrong choices, we learn about making virtuous choices with good attitudes in the first place? I hope Virtue Chicks inspires generations of brave children who will dare to boldly make good and right decisions shining Christ through their friendships and lives!-Allison Dennis (Author)
