My Review:

An amazing boys bible...able to keep them searching for more. Throughout the bible there are Check It Out...with fascinating facts and trivia. Grossologs...a boys word for sure!...If it oozes, bleeds, smells, spine tingling, its in the bible. Words To....is words to live by, verses to keep God's Word in your heart.
I have a young man in mind to give this to, I think it is ideal for a young teen. I feel that this book will captivate the young mind and make them delve in for more.
