Book Review: What Ever is Lovely


Book Description

Totally change your life by changing your thoughts?
That is the goal of Whatever Is Lovely: A 90-Day Devotional Journal from internationally-published author, Allia Zobel Nolan, in the popular Faithgirlz brand. With examples based on real contemporary girls, each of these 90 devotionals shows them how to fill their heads and their hearts with virtues taken straight from Philippians 4:8, helping girls grow closer to God and the amazing life he has intended for them.
Featuring a trendy color interior, a ribbon marker, and journaling lines for girls to write their thoughts, Whatever Is Lovely will inspire girls to read and reflect on the devotionals every single day.
My Review:
I have been reading this with my daughter and will admit I think she could wait a few more years to read it.  It is really geared for a teenager there is some lingo used that is definitely a bit above my daughter.   However, I might just be having a hard time admitting she is growing up.  
I love the whole idea about this book, training yourself to think and say things that are positive and pleasing.   Each chapter has scripture and relatable topics and discussions for pre-teens and teens.  The chapters only take a couple minutes to read and really get your mind to pause and think about things in a Godly perspective.

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.
