I’m so stoked! I had a glimpse of an early copy of one of the books we have been translating for years now.

April’s Quick Review (Children’s Book Edition)

Since I got to rediscover Net Galley, I read some books that I don’t usually get through e-mail. It’s evident in this post that you can read my reviews of other books outside of what I usually dive into. I hope you find this review as a guide on what books you  will get for your kids.

A Little More Like Jesus (Zach Williams and Lisa Molloy, Zonderkidz) – This book explores the fruit of the Spirit in a fun and cool way. Hop on board the bus and let the Grammy award winning artist Zach Williams take you for a ride to places (representing the fruit of the Spirit) and guide you to become a little more like Jesus. I love the concept of the artist being in his book and taking kids for a road trip. The art is superb and really blends with all the coolness of this book.

February’s Quick Reviews (Children’s Book Edition)

Hello guys! It’s time to dive in to some newly released and upcoming children’s books that matters. It seems that these books (and I hope all books) have the same goal: to point them to Christ. There different approaches done by each books here that(spoiler!) they all deserve a high flying score of 5 (which is the highest). So let’s look at each one and if you like my reviews, please purchase these books.

My First ABC Book of Bible Verses (Jonathan Gibson and Mike Mullan, New Growth Press) Make My First ABC Book of Bible Verses first on the list of books that your kids will dive into. The words that represent the A to Z  here are not the usual ones. The words here are part of a Bible verse that touches different topics that points to God. The verses are short just enough for the kids to read or memorize and you can say some kudos to the author on how he picked out those passages. So passages are familiar and some are not but you’ll be glad the author included them here.
