Thomas Nielson Book Review




The I Believe Bunny

by Tish Rabe
Illustrated by Frank Endersby

I had the opportunity to review this great children's book. It has beautiful illustrations, this book helps children in learning to put their faith into actions. I like how it starts with the verse from Phillipians 4:13, as a base for the story, "I can do everything through him, who gives me strength" The story is about a bunny who stumbles upon some trouble, a mouse was going to drown, he needed to call someone for help...I read this book to my 5 year old daughter, she just loved it. I recommend this book to any parent, this is also the first book to this collection, this is a great story to show any child to call to God when you need help!

~Bob the Builder Lunch Box~
The Big Game ~ Bob and his machine team are ready to play! Prepping for the big soccer match, a line-marking machine suddenly runs amok. Can the Can-Do-Crew fix it in time for the opening whistle? Yes, they can! Then it's off to the tennis courts to serve up more fun!

LIONSGATE sent me the Bob the Builder Lunch Box DVD set, even though I have two girls and no boys, my 5 year old likes to watch Bob the Builder just as much as she likes Thomas & Friends. The lunchbox is great! it's insulated and so easy to clean, she keeps some of her small toys in there. The DVD's are really great! They are not only funny and cute, but also educational, which is what I, as a parent want my kids to learn from these videos.
You can purchase these sets at any store where DVD's are sold.

This is an amazing product for mom's and kids! For mom's, because we don't have to clean up anymore snacks off the floor! And kids well, they just love it.
My daughter loves snacks, but can make a mess! it's more of what she spills then what she's eating. So, with Munchie Mug all that is over!
Munchie Mug is a cup that eliminates snack-time messes for children 10 months and older. It's ideal for use at home, in the car or anyplace when you're on the go! It's BPA free and dishwasher safe. I really like how kids can easily put their hand through the soft fabric closure and get their little snacks. It also includes a stay-fresh-lid to keep snacks fresh when not using the cup.
I have tried this snack cup, and I recommend it!

Books I'm Reading

I love reading, now that I have an 11 month old it's a bit harder to just read when I want. It's easier with my 5 year old, since she's older.

Anyways, I'm reading "The Shack" by: William P. Young
What a book! I am almost finished, this is one of those books you just can't put down, unless you have kids!
I really recommend this book, it's difficult story to read at first, I had to put it down several times, but I had to keep on reading! This book focuses on how to have a relationship and/or work on that relationship with God.

If you're interested in purchasing this book, here's a link from amazon.
