Book Review: Girls Slimline Bible NLT from Tyndale House Publishers

From the Publisher:

This adorable edition of God’s Word for girls features the easy-to-understand New Living Translation text with a soft-fur, bright-neon LOVE design and silver glittery lining. The BOLD FAITH design on the back cover encourages girls to live out their faith in ways that bring God glory.

This hardcover deluxe edition also features purple page edges, neon orange ribbon marker, special presentation page, 8 pages of full-color maps, and a 53-page dictionary/concordance to help locate passages on various topics.

The New Living Translation text is excellent for young readers because it is so clear and they can understand what they are reading! When they can read and understand God’s Word, God can work in their hearts!

My Review:

The Girls Slimline Bible NLT (New Living Translation) from Tyndale House Publishers is exactly what the title says. Its a slimline Bible which means thin pages but what this slimline Bible has that many slimline Bibles do not is a reference section including 53 page dictionary/concordance and 8 pages of full color maps. The cover is amazing. The cover is hardbound wrapped with fuzzy fabric printed the word “LOVE” and a hard glittery edge. On the back cover there is a cross with the words “Bold Faith.” The cover feels more durable than any other hardbound Bible that I own. Although the pages are thin, I would feel comfortable giving an early elementary school age girl this Bible and not needing to worry about the condition of the book. The purple page edging compliments the girl touch. Inside the cover is hotpink page with a cross outline and the scripture “Because of Christ and our faith in Him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God’s presence. Ephesians 3:12” Also inside the cover is a page for dedication including name, from, date, note. I really like how this book looks when it is open. The purple page edging against the hot pink inside cover and glittery edge beautifully shouts “GIRL.” I would not hesitate to buy this Bible for my daughter or buy it as a gift for a girl of any age who needs a durable Bible.

Book Review: The Biblical Hebrew Companion for Bible Software Users by Michael Williams

Description

The Biblical Hebrew Companion for Bible Software Users by Michael Williams is a valuable reference to anyone who is studying Hebrew. I don’t understand Hebrew much but I am beyond amazed at how much of a reference this book is for people who are studying Biblical Hebrew. This book is a deep study of Hebrew grammar and it gives me a desire to learn Hebrew. I highly recommend this book for anyone studying Hebrew.

Comic Book Review: Ghostbusters International by Erik Burnham

Description

My Review

I decided to review Ghostbusters International by Erik Burnham because my older children and I really like the original Ghostbusters. This book unfortunately is nothing like the original. The book begins with a tarot card reading and death. This beginning turned me off to the book and gave me no desire to read further.  As I read the book I noticed that it was stretching the story line of Ghostbusters and is not fun at all like the original. I was hoping to be able to allow my children to read this comic but with tarot cards involved, it is a book we they will stay away from. I would not recommend this comic book to anyone.

My Review

I was excited to review NIrV, Kids’ Quest Study Bible, Hardcover Answers to over 500 Questions about the Bible by Zondervan because I own the NIV Quest Study Bible and I was hoping for a similar product. Quite honestly the NIrV, Kids’ Quest Study Bible, Hardcover Answers to over 500 Questions about the Bible by Zondervan is the best NIrV that I have seen. My words can not describe how much I love this Bible. The font size and color scheme are perfect. The “Kid’s Question” sections are amusing and informative. My children and I sqent quite some time enjoying all the “Kid’s Question” sections. The NIrV, Kids’ Quest Study Bible, Hardcover Answers to over 500 Questions about the Bible by Zondervan also has a small dictionary. The next NIrV purchase that I make will be the NIrV, Kids’ Quest Study Bible, Hardcover Answers to over 500 Questions about the Bible by Zondervan.
