Tell Me About Easter {B&H/LifeWay Review}

March 15, 2018 by Dana

Tell Me About Easter

B&H Kids

As a parent, I often find that though Easter is all about Jesus, and God, and their amazing love for us, sometimes Jesus’ story gets lost behind that adorable bunny rabbit.  As a parent, I also know that bunny is not the center of the reason for Easter.  God’s Love and His gift of His Son is.  I’m always, always looking for books to share with my children, that teach the truth of the Holiday instead of the story.
Tell Me About Easter is an adorable board book with felted pages that share’s the story of God’s Love for us.  The book isn’t terribly long.  Just the right length for your toddler or young child.  Each and every page is loaded with felted, soft texture that you and your child will enjoy. 
This book builds up the story of Easter, beginning with Spring, speaking of the joys that Easter’s anticipation brings to us.  It ends by sharing that Jesus died and he rose to show us God’s amazing love.  It brings together all the joys and hope of Spring and of God’s love as well.
Tell Me About Easter is a B&H Kids book.  It is available in bookstores and online for around $9.99.  The book itself is absolutely adorable and would make a great edition to any home library.

A Very Happy Easter Prayer {FrontGate Review}

March 15, 2018 by Dana

A Very Happy Easter Prayer
Bonnie Rickner Jenson
Illustrated by Natalia Moore

As a Mom, I am always looking for great books to add to our home library.  I especially love books that are holiday themed.  I also love books that share God’s love with my children.

A Very Happy Easter Prayer by Bonnie Rickner Jenson is the perfect book for Easter.  The book itself is gorgeous.  The front cover is slightly textured which makes the book look beautiful with it’s shimmer and sparkle.

Natalie Moore out does herself with the adorable, yet beautiful imagery on each page of this absolutely wonderful board book.  The pages are filled with daffodils, picnics underneath the big tree that’s featured on the book’s cover, tulips with bee hives and so many more lovely things to see.

The cover features a trio of rabbits but the book inside is filled with many great animals: bees, a fox, an owl, a duck, a moose, a bear and so many more.  This book is about God’s wonderful world, so much more than just the rabbits.  You’re child will love seeing the love these animals share as friends and through God’s love as well.

The story itself shares thankfulness for Spring, for rain and gentle breezes. It shares thankfulness for bluebirds and dandelions and honey bees.  It shares thankfulness for fluffy bunnies, for adventures and for Jesus’ birth and love.  It shares thankfulness for all the things that make Easter morning special.

This is a lovely book that would be a great addition to any family library.  A Very Happy Easter Prayer by Bonnie Rickner Jenson is from Tommy Nelson Publishers and is part of their A Time To Pray series. It sales for $8.99 in bookstores and online.

David Nicholson: If He Had Not Come {Crew Review}

November 6, 2014 by Dana

If He Had Not Come is a gorgeous Christian children’s book from David Nicholson.  The story in this book originates from a story originally written by Nan F. Weeks and is retold beautifully by David Nicholson.
The illustrations are absolutely beautiful and were designed and completed by Charles Jaskiewicz.  The pages truly come to life as you read through the story.  The images are clear and vivid.
This book truly speaks to your heart.  If He Had Not Come tells the story of a young boy named Bobby.  It begins with Bobby hanging his stocking above the fireplace on Christmas Eve in a fully decorated holiday room.
Before bed, Bobby’s father reads to him from the Bible.  He particularly shares the words John 15:22 “If I had not come.”  Bobby went to sleep with these words mulling in his mind.
Have you ever thought about that verse yourself?  What if God had not sent his son to save us?  What would this world be like?  Would their be churches or Christmas?  Would their be soup kitchens or shelters?  Would people know the love and kindness that we know today?
https://www.davids-treehouse.com/
Bobby quickly found the answers to these questions and through this story we learn the answers.  God reaches us every day in so many ways but had his son not come, we may have missed out on so much.  If He Had Not Come helps us to see the truth in just how much Jesus’ birth really has given and blessed all of us.
This is a gorgeous book for Christmas and would make a great gift for all Christian families.  At the end of the story there are Interactive Topics for family and Sunday school use.  These topics lead to great discussions and help put this story into perspective for students.
There is a page titled Going Deeper which also helps promote real thinking about this book and it’s subject.  Another page is titled The Gospel Message which shares the story and truth of Jesus with others who may not know His love.  And lastly, there is a page titled An Idea to Help You Celebrate Christmas.  This is just a sweet idea of drawing a Christmas tree that any child will love to complete.
We read this book as a family several times and we have really enjoyed it.  The discussions it lead to were wonderful and really got my children thinking.  My Mother even enjoyed this story.

This book is such a beautiful one.  It left me with tears in my eyes thinking about what if Jesus had never come.  It’s truly heart-touching and should be in the homes of every Christian family.
If He Had Not Come written by Nan F. Weeks and reintroduced by David Nicholson is available for purchase for $18.95 as a hardbook children’s book or $3.99 for an e-Book copy.  This is a book for all ages but especially for young children.  It is approximately 40 pages in length.

Big Bouffant by Kate Hosford {Book Review}

February 23, 2011 by Dana

Big Bouffant by Kate Hosford
Illustrated by Holly Clifton-Brown
Published by Lerner Publishing Group
Price: $16.95 hardcover or $12.71 eBook
For ages 5-8
    Annabelle was tired of looking the same as the other girls in school day after day.  She wanted to be different.  She thought of many ways to make it happen and when she came across an old picture of her Grandmother, she decided a Bouffant was the PERFECT way!  Annabelle started a new trend at school and quickly realized that even a simple change can be boring after a while. 
     This book was a lot of fun to read.  The kids and I both enjoyed the cute ways Annabelle attempted to create her bouffant and all the little things she added into it, in the process.  The storyline is adorable and entertaining all the way through.  We give this book two thumbs up!  You can find your own copy at Amazon.com today!
