My Daughter is Starting to Read


Time to spotlight another Children's Bible!  From the bestselling Author, Tracy Harrast Pens, a colorful new learning bible helps new and young readers.  

This Spring brings the arrival of a new animated storybook Bible from bestselling author Tracy Harrast, which contains a learn-to-read aspect for children ages 4-7.  

Unique to this genre, MY LEARN TO READ BIBLE (Zonderkidz; $19.99; March 2013)incorporates the New International Reader’s Version (NIrV) of the Bible with the rebus method of teaching – a popular learning technique using special symbols in place of words to help children expand their vocabulary and acquire more confidence in their reading.
The book includes a glossary introducing 50 iconic Biblical images found in the text—such as an angel, a baby, a cross—and simple terms from everyday life like tree and bread.

My Review- Praise God!  Tonight we read the first chapter and my daughter was READING!  Not only did she read the pictures words but she was picking up on many site words.  I am so thrilled that this Bible has many chapters because we will be  practicing reading skills with this Bible.  


The rebus style of teaching reading is always a fun one for children.  Using pictures is always a fun way to help teach words.  I know my daughter was feeling very accomplished as she headed to bed this evening.  

If you have a son or daughter who is a beginner or new reader then this is the Bible for you.  This Bible sure is helping me, a parent, teach my child some basic reading skills but also focus on God's word.  AWESOME! 

The "My Learn to Read Bible" has over 100 Bible Stories that will leave your young reader learning about Jesus and learning to read.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program.

After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way. Scared is a feeling that can be hard to face, but if we listen to it, we can learn things about ourselves. In  God, I Feel Scared , children will discover that it’s okay to be scared and that God is with us in all things, including fear. With simple, accessible text, scared becomes an emotion that kids don’t need to avoid and instead something they can use to better understand themselves and grow closer to God. The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
