My thoughts: THE NIV BEAUTIFUL WORD BIBLE FOR GIRLS is absolutely gorgeous. My two teen daughters and I love the cover and the art work and its so colorful. 

This book would make an adorable gift for your favorite girl for Easter. I wish it was available in the KJV or NKJV for those KJV only crowd.  I also wish that verses weren't eliminated from the NIV.  

There are wide margins for notes and doodles, and any artwork in the book is already precolored.  (My daughter was disappointed about that. She wanted to color them)  All in all, this is a truly beautiful NIV Bible that your girl will be proud to carry.
