My Thoughts:

My daughter enjoys her devotional while learning about science. This is the third book in the series and I can’t say enough about all of them. They are fantastic, Biblically sound, inspirational, and help you to see God’s creation in all things.

This is a full-colored book with colorful illustrations and photos. A ribbon book marker is provided also. The intended age is 6-10. I think older kids will enjoy this also.

There are 100 devotions each one has a Bible verse at the beginning of the page and ends with a prayer. The devotion compliments the scripture in a two-page format. There are boxes on each of the 100 devotions. Some of them are “Explore the Wonder” or “Share the Wonder”.  A few interesting concepts: To Curl or Not To Curl?, Who Owns the Moon, Fight or Flight?, That’s no Joke and other fun scientific devotions. One that stood out to my daughter with everything going on in the world was “Under Attack” which talks about colds and how the virus enters our bodies. The reactions of that God designed with our white blood cells to fight off germs and viruses. Then it goes on to explain the spiritual battle and God gives us a way to fight back. If you have difficult words don’t worry they are broken down to help you out.

 The devotions cover topics on space, Earth, animals, and people. My family loves the devotions that Louie Giglio has created for kids. As a homeschool mom, I can see this being used as a jump-off to science concepts taught in your homeschool The spiritual aspects covered are very practical to everyday life.
