The Bible is not a fairy tale, but every great story happened once upon a time. The NIrV Once Upon a Time Bible contains a presentation page and also highlights six great stories from the Bible on 24 full-color inserts. Each story is told on four pages in full-color, illustrated splendor. Also contains the complete New International Reader's Version (NIrV) of the Bible.

Stories include:


  • God Makes Man and Woman

  • Isaac and Rebekah

  • Ruth Finds Happiness

  • Queen Esther

  • Mary and Joseph and an Angel

  • He Lives!

We all have our own tale to live and what better place to look for help and encouragement than the greatest story of all.


My thoughts: First, the disclaimer. "I was provided a free copy of this book. All opinions are my own." That done, ONCE UPON A TIME HOLY BIBLE is a colorful Bible sure to appeal to girls who love princesses. Full color, with six stories highlighted, it otherwise is a basic Bible, no frills, no maps, no red letter edition, no concordance, no ribbon place marker. It does include a presentation page and a dictionary. If you are looking for a new Bible for your favorite girl, then ONCE UPON A TIME HOLY BIBLE is one to consider.

Take time to enjoy God’s Word and color images from his beautiful world.

And when you’re finished coloring with markers, metallic pens, or colored pencils, you will have a chance to reflect and journal about each promise from Scripture, and find inspiration for every day. Perfect for girls 8-12.

My thoughts: First, the disclaimer. "I was provided a free copy of this book. All opinions are my own." That done, FAITHGIRLZ PROMISES FOR YOU COLORING DEVOTIONAL includes NIV verses, questions for you to answer (and lines on which to answer) regarding the verse you read and your thoughts about it. It also includes artwork that girls will love to color as they spend time thinking about the verses and questions and how to answer. 

The pages are thick paper stock that doesn't bleed through. A great book for tweens and early teen girls to start them spending time in the word.
