Night Night Bible Stories is a collection of stories for children. Parents can read them a story from this book each night. It good for parents and grandparents a like. The book is done well. I enjoyed each story and it understandable for children.

It was able to understand it better then reading the bible itself. It got stories from the old testament and some for the new testament. It broken down into these two parts. Though they flow together nicely in this one book.

The picture are done well. I really got the story behind each one with the pictures. The words and phrases were done well. I was really enjoyed them prase that chance with each story that you read. Some of the stories I got and knew well. I also got new stories I have not known or did not remember. It was really well done for me to understand and read.

Children will be able to grasp the stories being read to them and later be able to pick up the book and read themselves once they have learn to read. This book is worth having for young readers and parents. You can give it as a gift if you want or keep it yourself or for your children or grandchildren. Each story is different but they are written well. The easy to read and simple as well.

A new mother's journey in the aftermath of a natural journey, the novel has some very stark and touching moments. Written in fragments, possibly to reflect the turmoil but also possibly as a result of her 'former' self being a note-taker, it's an unusual presentation of such an overwhelming concept. It does, however, also make it a generally matter-of-fact narrative, with very little expansion on details or emotional reaction from the protagonist. At time this works well, as it seems a fair consequence to the reality being presented, but at time's I'd like to hear what our heroine is thinking or feeling, rather than coming across as an observational bystander. An interesting read, nonetheless.

Good ... but the book is better
I read the book first so the movie had a lot to live up to in my opinion and just couldn't quite do it. It is nice to have a Christian based movie in the theaters. But a movie just about God's grace and the trinity is a huge undertaking. That being said, it was well done and I'd watch it again.

You're welcome Rick Riordan. Why you ask? Well for purchasing TWO copies of this book...I lost the first one when I was about 75 pages in while on vacation. So of course I had to get another so I could finish it! That being said, I enjoyed this book but, then again, there's not a book by him that I haven't enjoyed. Looking forward to see how Leo, Calypso, & Apollo get along!

A well made series
I've seen this mentioned and the book it's based on getting high praise, so I thought I'd check it out. Someone said it was very Agatha Christie like, maybe in terms of the setting and characters. There is normally a murder to be solved but it normally relies on the main characters interaction with people, rather than any clues being unraveled. Still interesting nevertheless.
