Summary
Magazine-format New Testament geared to teen and pre-teen girls. Content includes the Bible verses as well as "interviews" with Bible characters, verses in "text"- like spelling, stories of real teens that relate to Bible messages or are inspiring on their own, and Bible-related pieces by famous teens.
Full-color layout includes reprints of key phrases, like you would find in a magazine article.
Review
I have had this on my shelf from the publisher (I am a reviewer for Thomas Nelson) for a year. Now that I have taken the time to go through it, I am sad that it took me this long to read and review it. This is a very clever concept. Visually appealing, comfortable layout, and just plain cool. I would give this to my nieces or to the girls I teach and I think they would love it. In fact, I plan to take my copy to school so my writing students can check it out. Not only is it a good New Testament resource, but the layout and sidebar ideas could give them ideas for their own writing projects.
4.5 out of 5 stars
Recommended for: teen and pre-teen girls, youth pastors/youth workers for small group study or to have on a table for students to peruse.
Cautions: none

I am a lover of books; I can't get enough of them. Come check out my recommendations for readers of all ages! I hope you find some new reading treasures for you and your family here. Three star books are good, four star books are great, five star books are outstanding. In general, if I didn't like it, I don't even blog about it. Recommendations are based on my personal opinions, and cautions are listed for the sake of sensitive and/or younger readers.
