The illustrations are absolutely wonderful! They are kid friendly, full color, well drawn and perfect for the topic they illustrate. The entire book is printed in color with borders at the top and bottom of the pages. It is the high quality you expect when purchasing a book as a gift.
God’s promises for boys cover a variety of topics including virtues, emotions, life lessons, and social interactions. On 2 facing pages, a topic, such as Worry, is presented. There is a little rhyming description of how that topic might make you feel. Following the rhyme are a handful of scripture verses that refer to that topic. The scriptures are taken from the International Children’s Bible. The section ends with an illustration of that topic.
I think this is a wonderful book for any young lad. It can help families approach situations that young boys face from a biblical standpoint. While it does not go in-depth into topics or scriptures, it is a helpful way to pinpoint scriptures that can help your child, as well as open a dialog to discuss what they might be feeling.
