The Wonder of Creation - Louie Giglio



The Wonder of Creation by Louie Giglio with Tama Fortner is a fascinating book of devotions about God and science that is sure to delight elementary-aged children. The engaging illustrations by Nicola Anderson and striking photography in this fun and informative book highlight each of the 100 devotions. The book features a scientific fact or an easy activity for exploring faith, a short Bible verse, and a closing prayer.

Readers of the book will explore
• Animals--from honeyguide birds to flying snakes to white rhinos
• Space--from black holes to volcanic moons to gamma-ray bursts
• People--from optical illusions to brain freezes to our immune systems
• Earth--from rainbow rivers to blue lava to flowing
glaciers
• And much, much more!

I enjoyed reading through The Wonder of Creation. It was informative, and focused on the incredible world that God created for us to enjoy. The devotions fit with the scientific facts perfectly, and the short prayer is an extra connection to God to tie it all together. Younger readers will need more help, but the parental involvement actually makes Devotion Time even more special and memorable. I highly recommend it for a child, but even moreso as a book for a family to read together. Get a copy now: BUY the BOOK

Roar Like a Lion - Levi Lusko

 

Roar Like a Lion by Levi Lusko (with Tama Fortner) is a children's devotional suitable for kids 6-10 years old. This sturdy, hard-cover book is a 90 day devotional that helps kids who are facing fears and challenges with school, peer pressure, grief, bullying, etc. or just to build faith to face the future strong as a lion.

The Bible stories, scripture and related stories, actions (Get Ready to Roar!), and hidden anchors, and brightly beautiful illustrations by Catherine Pearson, this book is sure to delight your elementary-age kids while also building and strengthening their faith in God. The contents of this book can also open more intimate conversations with the child's caregivers as well as conversations with God (through prayer). Young kids are not mature enough to process everything that impacts their lives and I see this as a helpful addition in learning how to cope with disappointments and fears.

The 6-year-olds in my family do not read well enough to use this book on their own, but I look forward to sharing it with my great-grandkids by reading it to them during their overnight visits. As they get older and reading skills improve, this book will be a familiar source. Of course, older kids can read it themselves, but I still think adult participation is useful and a special bonding experience.  

I give "Roar Like a Lion" 5 stars and recommend it as an excellent choice for a child. ORDER NOW and give it to a child now... or save it for a Christmas or New Year's gift.

GIVEAWAY! You can also ENTER TO WIN a physical copy of Roar Like a Lion, courtesy of Thomas Nelson & Momentum Influencers Network. Leave a comment with #roarlikealion on this blog or the social media platform I've posted this review. Deadline to Enter is September 27, 2021. USA only.
