What a colorful little book this is. With excerpts from the International Children's Bible this is a great tool for young girls (ages 4-7 approximately) to learn to grow in their relationship with Christ as well as into themselves and the princesses that they are. I was a little thrown at first reading the scripture realizing the parts that were missing, but that was before I knew that this was with excerpts and references to scripture and not a full Bible. The main points are there and other parts are left open that would encourage discussion of further depth into scripture at least in my opinion.

"Every girl is a princess, the daughter of a King... the greatest King who created and rules over everything!" The features through out this Bible are amazing and fun. There is a letter to princesses in the front as well as a letter to parents with a section that explains the features and how to enhance the learning experience. Features including how to keep scripture "down in my heart", learn "beauty secrets", know facts about "Bible Princesses", and more including manners of "Princess Charming"! I thoroughly enjoyed going through the pages of this Bible from author Sheila Walsh and I truly think that this will be a great asset to have once AppleBlossom is a bit older. *grin*

“God’s Little Princess Devotional Bible" written by Sheila Walsh and illustrated by Meredith Johnson helps make it a little easier.

This Devotional Bible has it all for the up-and-coming princess in your life. Scriptures and memory verses are from the International Children’s Bible making it easier for your princess to understand God’s words. This unique book has many extras: songs, beauty tips to make their insides as beautiful as their outsides. There are role models for them to look up to such as Esther, Ruth and many more. Scripture promises have been included that show our children how to make Jesus their hero. Some stories have easy plays for princess and mother. There are manner, poise and charm lessons. There is a feature that shows your princess ways to love everyone in their family, and community.
Finally there are the Royal Truths: basic values that every princess should possess. I was reminded as a mother and grandmother that these same lessons apply to me as well as my daughter and grand-daughters. Remember once a princess always a princess. This book is for ages 4 – 7 but I believe girls 8 – 10 would enjoy it just as much. ( )

Sheila Walsh has created a sweet book that gives young girls examples of strong women who reflect good characteristics. It helps them to learn how to grow up to be a beautiful princess. The many different sections highlight ways for girls to develop and express their true nature. The book contains beauty secrets, scriptures, stories, royal traits, role playing, and tips on how to show love and have charming manners. Inside and out this is a colorful and attractively presented book.

This book makes a perfect gift for any little girl. It focuses on ages 4-7. Reading it with the little girls in your life is a lovely way to share a special moment each day. The pictures really captured my 5 year old daughter's interest and the stories were simple enough for her to enjoy. I am happy that she now has another perspective on the usual princess theme that focuses exclusively on external beauty. ( )
