Checking Out the New VeggieTales Bible NLRV

In the VeggieTales Bible, Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber, and all their VeggieTales friends invite children to join them and get to know the Bible. In this full-text New International Reader’s Version (NIrV) Bible, each feature is specially designed to help children understand and love God’s Word.



Features include:
  • Eight full-color, best-loved Bible stories as told in the VeggieTales videos, including Dave and the Giant Pickle; Rack, Shack, and Benny; and Esther, the Girl Who Became Queen.
  • Book introductions that give important information about each book of the Bible.
  • “Veggie Values” that teach lessons from the Bible, like God made you special, God loves you very much, don’t be afraid, be kind to others, forgive one another, and many more.
  • “Remember This”, highlighting key verses of Scripture to remember.
  • A dictionary to help kids better understand key Bible words and concepts.
  • The complete text of the New International Reader's Version (NIrV), written at a third-grade level and specifically designed to help early readers discover the Bible for themselves—the perfect steppingstone to the NIV.
Our Thoughts:
It's VeggieTales so what's not to love.  I love VeggieTales and was looking forward to sharing this Bible with our children's Sunday School class.  It was a hit!  The kids enjoyed the familiar characters, the vibrantly-colored pages and simple messages.  It's not the entire Bible. The VeggieTales Bible is a collection of 8 stories but it's perfect for new readers and the stories are familiar stories written in the NIrV translation which is quickly becoming one of my favorite Bible translations for kids.  NIRV translation coupled with the features of the VeggieTales Bible are sure to encourage kids to better understand complicated Bible concepts.

 Overall, a great read.

Life is a Beach Giveaway Hop

Spring is in full swing.  The birds are singin'.  The pollen is falling and temps are FINALLY warming up.  So what better time time to start planning our Summer getaways. This year - as always - we are beach bound.  It's one of our fave places to visit given we only get to the beach once or twice a year.   Last year's visit to Cozumel was one for the record books. We stopped by this little restaurant and dined on grilled shrimp in a cabana right on the beach.   'Ohana also has a line of tequilas in flavors I had never seen before.  Tropical flavors such as coconut, mango and pina colada.  Hubby and I tried the 'Ohana peanut butter tequila.  The owner said folks either love it or hate it... we LOVED it!!! As I was sipping all I could think of was how good this peanut butter tequila would taste as a baste on my tequila wings.  It would be like a tequila satay wings type dish. * * * G I V E A W A Y * * * One lucky Three ...
