Very Sweet Children's book, April 5, 2011
This review is from: That's When I Talk to God (Hardcover)
That's When I Talk to God, by Dan & Ali Morrow is a sweet little book, beautifully illustrated by Cory Godbey. FROM THE BACK COVER: A little girl discovers that she can talk to God anytime, in any place, and about anything. As a little girls says her bedtime prayers, her mother asks a simple question that sparks a powerful discovery; "You know we can pray to God anytime we want to, right?" With that, the little girl suddenly finds things to talk to God about everywhere-in her garden, in a friend's backyard, and on the soccer field-and learns how God talks to her, too. MY THOUGHTS: This is a wonderful book for children, each page has colorful pictures which are certain to be appealing to children and the story is written in the little girl's voice which makes it even more fun for those you are reading it to. I loved how the story unfolded as the little girl realized how she could talk to God anytime just like she can talk to her mom anytime! I think this book is great for young children, as parents we may pray at meals and at bedtime which becomes normal for our children, but how do they know they can talk to God anytime? It's obvious we can do so as adults, but not to our children. That's When I Talk to God is a great bedtime story and I can't wait to share it with my nieces and nephews! **I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for review from B & B Media Group.

That's When I Talk to God, March 29, 2011
This review is from: That's When I Talk to God (Hardcover)
By Dan and Ali Morrow and Illustrated By Cory Godbey (David C Cook, 2011) This children's book portrays a wonderful story that teaches children that God is always listening for their prayers and that God speaks to them in many ways. The captivating illustrations are inspiring and comforting. With a durable hardcover, this book will likely become a regular bedtime story and one that children will want to keep for their own children as they grow up. The back pages of this book contain some Bible verses to supplement the story's message. A letter written from a grandpa to parents and grandparents is printed on the last page to motivate them to encourage their children and grandchildren to talk to God throughout each day. Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free through The B & B Media Group, Inc. book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255vf: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising."

"That's When I Talk with God" by Dan & Ali Morrow, April 22, 2011
This review is from: That's When I Talk to God (Hardcover)
the Living Room Couch (blogspot) book reviews you want to read Snack of Choice: Warm cup of milk... and some Oreos with Peanut Butter... and make that COLD milk. Story behind the story: I JUST got this book. In fact, I JUST requested it as well. This is the first book I have received from the B&B Media Group. They are NOT the publisher, they are the media promoters. I'm very impressed with their swift response. The publisher for this particular book was published by David C. Cook. I am not required to give a positive review in exchange for this free product. Story Line: When can you talk to God and what do you talk to Him about? This children's book brings the parent and child who are reading it through a day in the life of a young girl who is discovering what it means to pray. When you wake up, on the playground, and under the stars - from praise and honor, to repentance and needs - we can follow the advice of Thess. 5:17 ("Pray continually). Story illustrated by Cory Godbey. The Real Story: I'm so glad to get some of these resources that I can use for YEARS. There are going to be kids in our house. Some will stay for a while and some will never leave (maybe after they turn 18), but how do I provide a godly base for them? Where do I start? No matter how much or how little a child knows about God, this story book provides the example and the opportunity for questions and for foundational truths to be unveiled. The book includes some great Scriptures on prayer that can be a part of the reading of the story. The one thing I wonder about has to do with the mother and daughter in the story. I could see my wife sharing this with our little girl, and I could even see me sharing it with her. My thought is about a boy's reaction to the story. Would he connect the way a girl would with the character (a girl)? Either way, I'm gonna give it a try! What a great book! Just a note, Ali is Lee Strobel's daughter. Lee writes a letter included at the back of the book encouraging parents to the use the resource. Check out: "That's where God Is" by the same authors Rating: 5 out of 5 conversations with God
