“Morris Goes to School” by B. Wiseman narrates the delightful journey of Morris, a moose with an insatiable curiosity. Feeling the need to know more about the world around him, Morris decides to attend school. Along the way, he faces challenges but remains eager and enthusiastic, much like the Bible’s teachings on approaching life’s learning curves with an open heart and seeking wisdom. Morris’s quest for knowledge mirrors the Christian principle that wisdom and understanding are gifts from God, and that seeking education and personal growth is a reflection of one’s dedication to bettering oneself in God’s eyes.

For young readers and teenagers, “Morris Goes to School” is not merely an entertaining tale of a moose in a classroom. It’s a story rich in lessons about the importance of education, the joy of learning, and the blessings of seeking wisdom. Through Morris’s experiences, kids are gently reminded of Proverbs 2:6, “For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.” The story instills in them the idea that, with God’s guidance, they can overcome any challenges, embrace learning, and continuously grow in wisdom and stature, both in the world and in their spiritual lives.
