Saturday's Book Recommendation: God's promises for boys by Jack Countryman and Amy Parker; Richard Watson (ill.)
God's promises for boys by Jack Countryman and Amy Parker, Illustrations by Richard Watson
This is gift type book for boys. It gives topics, like "Making Each Day Count," "Obeying Your Parents," and "God Needs Boys." Each topic gets a two page spread (this is a smaller, hardcover book.) Under the topic heading, a short rhyme introduces the idea. Then appropriate Bible verses are listed with fun illustrations.
This would be nice for family devotions, if you want to add your own discussion and prayers. You could choose a topic, read all the verses or just choose a few, then talk about it and pray together. I think it could be a great spark for family discussions.
It is visually appealing with a contemporary color scheme (that appeals to me) and fun illustrations that will appeal to little boys.
I think pre-readers to early elementary would most like this book.
I'm looking forward to giving this to my nephews.
