My Thoughts: Green thumbed faithful, this Bible is for you! Better yet, Bible and nature lovers will enjoy this Bible as well. To get a real appreciation for this book you need to read the introduction: "Reading God's word like a gardener". Although NIV God’s Word for Gardeners Bible is marketed as a Bible for gardeners, this Bible is so much more. The Bible is well illustrated and the writers did a wonderful job presenting the gardens of the Bible.
