Description

This is an absolutely beautiful book in words and pictures! Retold for girls, it is a collection of stories of women of the Bible and how God uses themwhether they followed God or notin His overarching plan. There is so much I love about this book! The stories are carefully retold without contradicting the Biblical account or sanitizing challenging topics. The plentiful graphite and full-color illustrations are absolutely lovely and captivating. Of particular note, based on the author's personal conviction, the face of Jesus is never portrayed. Sometimes Bible story books stay at a superficial level, but this book is a dig-deeper devotional book. After each of the 40 stories, the girl is guided to take a closer look at "He," (focusing on Jesus), "Me" (an opportunity to build personal character) and "She" (an opportunity to pray for another girl). Each story includes a key Hebrew word with pronunciation and a key memory verse. Includes a Parent Connection page, with bonus material accessible online. Written by Angie Smith. 9" x 9", hc, 249 pp. ~ Ruth
