Giveaway! My Favorite Bible by Rondi DeBoer and Christine Tangvald

Would you like to opportunity to own this Bible? Leave a comment below telling me why this Bible would make a good addition to your home or church library. That's it! I'll put all the names in a virtual hat and post a winner on December 15. Please remember to 'follow' the blog for updates. - Donna


With the vibrant illustrations and engaging text in this Bible storybook, you can enjoy sharing the best-loved stories of the Bible with the children in your life and encourage a life-long love for the Word of God. My Favorite Bible is a book of exciting Bible stories and activity pages that guide children through the foundational truths of Scripture.

Each story is fully illustrated and includes a simple narrative full of things kids love: repetition, rhythm, and energy, along with a key biblical theme, a key Bible verse, and discussion questions to help adults introduce children to the Bible.

The colorful illustrations will capture the imaginations of children ages 4–8, and the stories will help adults to pass along the most important truth in life—the Gospel. Families will cherish this time as they read, listen, learn, and love, growing closer to one another even as they grow closer to God.

This is not a children’s Bible. It is a Bible story book that includes key verses and parent pages called “Family Talk” and “Family Fun” to assist adults in discussing the stories with children.



Giveaway courtesy of Revell Publishing, I have one copy of  My Favorite Bible to give away.

Mayra Calvani Visits Topsy Turvy Land



Recently I had the pleasure of recording the voiceover for "The Doll Violinist" by Mayra Calvani, a sweet book about an orphan named Emma. Five days before Christmas, Emma is captivated by a doll in a shop window. Each day, she sneaks out of the orphanage to check if it’s been sold, but the shop owner, Madame Dubois, sends her away, but Emma keeps her hopes up that one day that doll will be hers. The illustrations by Amy Moreno are lovely.
