My Review:

I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I was not paid for this review and all opinions are 100% mine.

I would have never thought to connect the fruits of the spirit with animals. It truly gives children a better picture and understanding of the fruits of the spirit by relating it to a dog and the dogs behavior. The dogs are all very adorable which makes the pictures pop out and keep the attention of many age groups! Reading this story will allow parents to discuss each fruit of the spirit in a more personal way with using a humble heart in admitting areas in which we as parents need to grow too. My kids and I set some goals we each are trying to work on one of the fruits of the spirit this week! :) I imagine we will have to go to this book often this week to keep it all fresh in our heads.

The only thing I do wish would be edited in this book is capitalizing "he" in the book. When ever we are talking about God I have been taught and want to teach my children that if the "he" is God it should be "He!" I remember a few years back when I did not but a capital h on it and I had a close friend explain it to me and I am now hooked on making sure I capitalize it! Overall this book is great and if you are trying to work on those fruits of the spirit this is a great book to add to your list when teaching it!

"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.

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.

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.
