HoneyWord Bible: NLT (Tyndale Kids) Hardcover – July 1, 2004

After reading "Moonwalking with Einstein", I wanted to find a way to translate the lessons of memory retention to the bible. I had seen a copy of this bible in a hotel many moons ago and remembered the cool way it uses symbols to help kids retain the stories of the bible. I am such a huge fan of this! Emmet Cooper got it right and has compiled stories to go alongside the bible's stories that will help kids to retain the information read to them.I can only find this book in used format since it appears to be out of print, but in any case, I've successfully purchased a number of them in almost brand new condition and am so happy I did.Happy bible reading to you!

This Bible is a great way to help kids and adults remember Bible verses. I found myself using the hints to help me with verses. One I've used is for John 14:6; I am the way, the truth and the light. You use the "one way street" sign and every time you see the sign, it will remind you of that verse. This Bible is put together very well and easy to use.

The Honeyword Bible is given a 'light' touch using the New Living Translation. Humorous caricatures are interspersed to describe the Books of the Bible and certain terms or phrases as they appear in a passage. I bought quite a number to give as gifts for adults - two of whom teach Sunday School and young adults. I can recommend this edition for those who want a 'readable' Bible. The size of the print is appropriate for a child's use or an adult with vision problems.

I purchased this Bible because a friend recommended it. It's a fabulous children's bible. I would strongly recommend it to any parent introducing their children to the bible. It has interactive ways to help the chapters stay in the childs memory. I can't say enough good about this bible. Love it, Love it, Love it.

I had been looking for a Bible for my five year-old that would be engaging and present God's word in a fun way. I also wanted him to learn things in a way that would "stick." This bible does just that. Each book of the bible is presented with a character that sounds like the actual book to help children remember it well. There are verses that are highlighted throughout the bible that are key to the message of the book. So far, we love it and my little boy has already learned a great deal. I recommend this bible for anyone who is looking for a way to teach their children to hide God's Word in their hearts.

I have carefully reviewed several children's bibles but this is the only one I can fully recommended as meeting two very important points. First,none do a better job than the Honeyword Bible at making a connection between great illustrations and biblical truths that stick in your child's memory whether he/she is a visual or a auditory learner. Mr. Cooper has used familiar symbols to remind us of God's word throughout the course of a normal day. Second, the New Living Translation (NLT) they will never outgrow. It will bless your family reguardless of age.

My boys love this Bible! I bought one for my nine year old and he reads it on his own. He has put markers in favorite passages so he can go back and read them. My six year old liked it so much he asked for one, too. So I ordered one for him and he is also reading it on his own. Great Bible for kids.

Great for the whole family, easy to understand.Hard to find.
