Sally Ann Wright

his is my first book by Sally Ann Wright, and I hope it won't be my last one. My Keepsake Bible is a good gift for a mom who has just had a baby, it has a place for his birthdate, his mom, dad, grandparents, plus a kid's bible. It's wonderfully illustrated, soft cover, bright colors, easily read, a book any kid would love to read or have read to them. I really love the prayers in the book, so simple, easy and soothing. I plan on using some of those prayers in my daily life for myself and my family. It was made so clear for the kids, they'll be reading it over and over until it gets dogearred. I especially liked that prayer:
Lord Jesus,
the wind and the waves obey you.
Deaf people hear because of you.
Blind people see because of you.
Lame people walk because of you.
Dead people live because of you.
Help me to obey you,
to hear you, to see you in those around me,
to walk where you want me to be,
to live my life serving you by helping others.
Lord, make us instruments of your peace.
Where there is HATRED, let us sow LOVE;
Where there is INJURY, let there be PARDON;
Where there is DISCORD, UNION;
Where there id DOUBT, FAITH;
Where there is DESPAIR, HOPE;
Where there is DARKNESS, LIGHT;
Where there is SADNESS, JOY;
For your mercy and for your truth's sake.
Great Book!!!
Nice job SALLY ANN WRIGHT, hope to read another one of your books. God Bless.

NCLA Review - Written by Sally Ann Wright and brightly illustrated by Italian artist Paola Bertolini Grudina the Big Book of Bible Questions is intended for children from Pre-School through third grade. Each colorful page has two short columns with the same questions and answer format, including a short paragraph telling the reader more about the event. All of the questions asked and answered throughout the book are also printed in the back of the book along with the scripture reference. The text is written in child-friendly language. Both the Old and New Testament are represented from Creation through Paul. The simple questions drawn from the lives of all the main characters in the Bible and covering all the main biblical events should delight, challenge and inspire children of all ages. Rating: 4 —MF. 60p. Abingdon 2008, $14.00 [220.95]… (más)
