Description: “James Janeway (1636–1674) compiled numerous accounts of the conversions of young children and their testimonies prior to their early deaths to serve the spiritual well-being of children. Next to the Scriptures and Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress, Janeway’s book was the most widely read children’s book in the seventeenth century.

“Cotton Mather (1663–1728), a Puritan pastor in New England, wrote his own account of children converted by God. That book, plus Janeway’s, are printed together in this volume. They not only show how Puritan parents evangelized their children in the home, but still today, can assist you in parenting and assist your children who may read them for great profit to their own souls.”
—Joel Beeke

“Are the souls of your children of no value? They are not too little to die, they are not too little to go to hell, they are not too little to serve the great Master, not too little to go to heaven.”
—James Janeway

A Token for Children, written by James Janeway in the seventeenth century, is designed for adults in the twenty-first century. If we contemporary ‘Christians’ want to know what Christian experience is, we can do no better than to let these little children of centuries ago teach us…. Every modern Christian parent ought to buy and study this book before making it required reading for all of his/her offspring.”
—John H. Gerstner, from the Foreword
