NIV Faithgirlz! Bible

The new Faithgirlz! Bible was developed especially for girls ages 9 to 12. Everything in it is written with a tween girl’s experience in mind, and it features the most popular Bible translation in the world, the New International Version. The features explain hard-to-understand things in the Bible and guide girls to put the Scripture to work in their own lives. The Faithgirlz! Bible focuses on sharing faith with friends and gives real ways for girls to do that.

Each book of the Bible has activities that make God’s Word more relevant than ever. And, of course, because it was developed for Faithgirlz! readers, they can expect to find it jam-packed with customized content and artwork that really makes the Bible stand out. Girls will love the cool design, the interactive features and the feeling of knowing that God’s Word is there for them whenever they need it. Some of the features included are:

· Book Introductions—Girls will read the who, when, where and what of each book of the Bible.

· Dream Girl—Girls will use their imaginations to put themselves in the story.

· Is There a Little (Eve, Ruth, Isaiah) in You?—Girls will see for themselves what they have in common with women of the Bible.

· Words to Live By—Girls will discover great Bible verses for memorizing.

The main edition of the Faithgirlz! Bible is hardcover, but it is also available in two Italian Duo-Tone designs. For better portability, there is also an NIV Faithgirlz! Backpack Bible. This compact edition does not include the in-text features that the full-size edition has, but it does have twelve full-color pages of Faithgirlz! fun, the words of Christ in red and a ribbon marker. An ebook version is also planned for electronic use.

I love this Bible! The fonts are so pretty, as are the colors,so much so that I wanted to keep this bible for myself instead of giving it to my daughter. There is just so many things to love about this bible. The extras are perfect for girls of any age. My favorites are the Oh, I Get It! boxes. How many times do we read the Bible and just come out of it not fully understanding what we just read? And not just that, but it also serves to expand on the text of the Bible. It definitely makes the Bible more understandable for a tween girl. I gave this to Victoria and she read the entire thing (cover to cover) in two days. When I asked her why she did that, she said “I just couldn’t put it down. It was the best story ever!” She takes it with her to church every Sunday and I find her reading it again and again.
