ISLAND BREEZES

My eleven year old grandson gave this Bible a top notch all around rating.  While he was checking it out, I noticed that it was nice and sturdy.  Just what a young boy needs.  Little Mister S liked the tire tread design. 

The print is a bit bigger and bolder than the girl’s Bible.  It draws the eye and makes it easier to capture the attention of a boy.

Granny Nanny likes the introduction page of each book with all the basic info about that particular book.  The little mister likes the “grossology.

His impression of this Bible was one of “I’m going to take this home with me.”  You know it’s good when this child wants to keep it.
