Using the accurate, readable, and clear New International Version (NIV) text makes the Bible accessible and easy-to-read for kids. The NIV is the result of over 50 years of work by the Committee on Bible Translation, who oversee the efforts of many contributing scholars. Representing the spectrum of evangelicalism, the translators come from a wide range of denominations and various countries and continually review new research to ensure the NIV remains at the forefront of accessibility, relevance, and authority. Every NIV Bible that is purchased helps Biblica translate and give Bibles to people in need around the world.

My Thoughts:

This is a beautiful full Bible with a fun Leathersoft-over-board cover. There are several designs that will be very appeasing for girls. I love the fun colors and designs available. The recommended age is 8-12 with this Bible. There is a white ribbon book-marker to keep your reading place secure.

The Bible layout is one single-column with a margin. Some of the margin is lined for note taking or designing your own Bible journaling design. Other places for the margin has a design for you to color. The Bible lays out flat for easy coloring or designing.

The Bible doesn’t have an introduction page at the beginning of each book.  There are no maps at the back of the Bible.

This is a big thick Bible. I wasn’t expecting it to be so thick. It weights a little over two pounds!

The pages are your typical thin Bible pages but the page color is white. The only median you can color with no bleed through would be with coloring pencils or crayons. If you do use other medians I would recommend having a thick piece of paper to put behind it. You will have bleed through. The good thing is that the bleed through will be in the margins. Personally I would prefer thicker pages for a Bible that you can color in. I was a bit disappointed with the paper quality. 

There are some full page designs also. Some of the designs are scripture verses and others just fun designs to color.

The font size is 8 point type size! The font is way too small for me to read and for my daughter with vision issues. This may not be an issue for those with good vision and much younger than me.

This is a lovely Bible with a lot of potential. This will be very appealing to girls who love to be creative and a good start for Bible journaling.
