Adventure Bible for Early Readers {Review}

Let me just give you an overview of what's in this bible:

• Life in Bible Times - Articles and illustrations describe what life was like in ancient days
• People in Bible Times - Articles offer close-up looks at amazing people of the Bible
• Let’s Live It! - Hands-on activities help you apply biblical truths to your life
• Did You Know? - Interesting facts help you understand God's Word
• Words to Treasure - Great verses to memorize
• Twenty special pages - Games and other Bible fun, all with a jungle safari theme
• Book introductions, a dictionary, and color maps

I've always thought I would love to have this bible for my kids, but it's so different looking at one in the store and being able to have one in my home.  I wanted to be able to hold it and really take my time with it.  And I was not disappointed.

This bible is just beautiful, inside and out.  It's written in a NIrV, very similar to NIV, and easily accessible for young readers.  There's plenty of little extras like the dictionary, memorizations, profiles of biblical characters, all of which combine to encourage young readers in their spiritual growth.  The full color pages are engaging without being cartoonish.  And the quality of this bible is beautiful with a hardcover and pages thick enough to keep the print from showing through.

The only drawback to this version is the 3D cover which just cheapened the look overall.  I just would have preferred to have had the cover from an earlier version.

Overall, I'm very happy with this bible.  I would recommend this version for ages 7 and up.
