Book Review: Sequin Sparkle and Change Bible: Pink By Tommy Nelson Bibles

Book Description:

The pink Sequin Sparkle and Change Bible is sure to be a hit with girls! This fabulous material is on everything from pillows to t-shirts. The “mermaid” sequins change color right before your eyes. Girls will love the design and will want to carry the Sequin Sparkle and Change Bible everywhere!

This Sequin Sparkle and Change Bible features a cover with pink sequins that change color depending on which way your child swipes. It’s double the fun! It’s perfect for kids ages 6 to 10 to take to Sunday school, read with the family, or study on their own.

The ICB, the first Bible translation created specifically for children, is easy for children to read and understand with a third-grade reading level and is typeset in a large, readable font. The Bible text is set in ten-point type, with bold in-text subject heads that help kids easily find the passages they are looking for. Also included are boldface words that correspond with a dictionary and concordance entry to explain word definitions. A great new feature in this updated setting is more than 300 key verses that are highlighted throughout the Bible for kids to read and learn. The beautifully illustrated insert pages are in a style that children love and will delight their imaginations, including topics such as:

A Bible timeline
A presentation page
A place to keep favorite Bible verses
Bible maps
Articles on topics such as how Jesus loves them, knowing Jesus better, and how to pray, etc.
Your little girl will love her Sequin Sparkle and Change Bible!

My Review:

Everyone is in love with the recent sequin flip color change fad. The pink Sequin Sparkle and Change Bible uses the fad to get children’s attentions. This cover draws everyone in the house to play with the cover. My kids all love the cover. But as a Bible, I’m not as impressed. The pages are very thin so you can easily read the print on the other side. Thin pages are hard for readers especially young readers because they have a hard-enough time deciphering the words on the page in front of them let alone trying to block out the backwards writing from the other side. There is key verse highlighting throughout the book which is helpful but the highlighted color is grey. The full color pages that are in this book are nice but not enough of them. My daughter loves this Bible because it has the awesome cover and Its about God and Jesus. I am happy for the opportunity to review the book with my daughter. This Bible contains a dictionary, a short concordance, a list of God’s promises and a list of popular memory verses.

I recommend this Bible for children 10 and younger because older than 10 or so should have a study Bible. This Bible is very basic inside.
