I enjoy looking at new children’s Bibles, and reading them, too. My nieces and nephews have so many Bibles, but it seems that they always appreciate having new ones. I was happy to receive a chance to read and review The Sweetest Story Bible for Toddlers, and I’m excited to share it with one of my nieces.

The story:

This book contains eight Bible stories, some of which are less common in children’s in most children’s Bibles – such as the story of Esther.

The illustrations:

The pictures in this book are okay. Not as cute as some others out there.

How strong is the book?

This is a sturdy, padded covered, board book.

Who the book is for:

This book is for toddlers, but I think babies and preschoolers would like it, too.

What I liked:

The stories are written in a simple and enjoyable way.

The padded cover is nice.

There’s not anything specific that I didn’t like in this book.

Not What the Title Implies - My Review of In This House We Will Giggle

Written by: Courtney DeFeo

Published by: WaterBrook Press

I was really excited to read and review In This House WeWill Giggle, as I thought that it would make a great gift for my older siblings who are parents. There are times when all parents need to lighten up and have fun, and I thought that was what this book was going to be about. But… I was disappointed.

Who the book is for:

This book was written for parents.

What I liked:

Shares stories from real life.

Has some good points.

I like the little ideas of fun things for families to do that are mixed throughout the book – that’s what I thought all of the book was going to be like.

I liked the part of the book on respect, where the author mentions that parents need to respect their children, too. But…

What I didn’t like:

…some of it was just weird. Boys need to stay standing until their moms are seated? Who does stuff like that these days, and what’s the point? That is not something that God ever instructed.

I didn’t like the idea in the patience chapter that was about setting your kids up for failure by putting a temptation such as cookies in front of children and then expecting them not to ask for them.

The whole book is very focused on perfection, not at all what I expected based on the title.

My conclusion:

Overall, this book wasn’t what I expected.

I give In This House We Will Giggle 2 out of 5 stars.

A Novel with Characters that I Liked - My Review of Love Without End

Written by: Robin Lee Hatcher

Published by: Thomas Nelson

I enjoy reading any novels I can get my hands on, and I thought that this book sounded especially interesting.

Love Without End tells the story of a widow and her daughter, an elderly woman, and a divorced father of two. The interactions between the variety of characters are fun to read.

Who the book is for:

Those who enjoy contemporary fiction, especially women. Horse and ranch lovers will find this book extra enjoyable.

What I liked:

The characters are very likeable.

The second half of the book kept my attention.

Has its heartwarming moments and also a bit of humor.

At first I wasn’t happy to have the story from the past mixed in with the “real” story, and I was confused when the book started with the past… but, I ended up really enjoying those pieces in the book, even longing for more of them.

What I didn’t like:

It took a while for me to really get into the book.

My conclusion:

Overall, this is a good read.

I give Love Without End 4 out of 5 stars.
