My thoughts: First, the disclaimer.  "I was provided a free copy of this book. All opinions are my own." That done, THE NIV WONDERS OF CREATION HOLY BIBLE is a coloring Bible suitable for all ages.  It is beautifully done and as a child I would've LOVED this Bible. Even as an adult it's appealing. The pictures invite a child in, beg for colored pencils, and maybe, just maybe, the child might be motivated to read the scriptures. Definitely they would read the verse on each coloring page, and maybe they would look it up and read the rest of the story. 

I liked the ribbon marker to mark places. Handy when the preacher has you going different places but tells you to keep your finger ______________ as you will go back. :) 

My tween daughter fell in love with this Bible as soon as she saw it, and wants it to be her pew Bible to use when she listens to the preacher during services. It would be a good Bible for that.   

This is a great Bible for your artistically minded tweens or even for yourself if you like coloring.
