Can anyone point me to picture books about faith other than the Christmas/easter story?

Thanks

This was about a ten second google search so I'm sure there are more. :-) You may want to read the ones similar to what you're writing and see who has published them.

Kar-Ben publishers for Jewish faith. For Christian I would say to look up picture books by Max Lucado. I'm sure there are various publishers for his books. Candy Cane Press is the only Christian PB publisher that is coming to mind at the moment. If I think of more I will add to this post.

Good luck!  :)

Also try Zonderkids, which is under the HarperCollins umbrella.
