The Princess and the Kiss by Jennie Bishop Book Review & Giveaway
The Princess and the Kiss: A Story of God’s Gift of Purity is a beautiful tale that unfolds in a splendid castle. A loving king and queen present their daughter with a gift from God—her first kiss—to keep or to give away. This precious gift is kept safe by the king and queen while the princess grows up.
As various suitors compete for
the princess’ attention, the wise girl waits for the man who is worthy of her
precious gift. The story beautifully portrays the ageless message that “love
comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith” (1 Timothy
1:5, NIV).
The surprising answer in this
marvelous parable will touch the heart of parent and child alike. It’s a
perfect tool for teaching young girls about what it means to be pure in an
impure world. Whether given as a gift or used as a teaching resource, this book
will help children understand the value of a pure heart.
I remember when this
book came out several years ago. I read it several times to my daughter and son.
(there is also a boy's version of this book) I loaned the book out and it never
came back. I’m glad that someone enjoyed the message as much as I did. I forgot
about the book and replacing it on my bookshelf. When I opened this book, I saw
my now 21-year-old’s face light up. She still remembers the message that is
told in this story. This book tells the story of purity. Purity isn’t a popular
message these days. A much-needed message for our kid's heart. @warnerpress

The book is
beautifully illustrated and fully colored on every page. The story reads like a
fairy tale to capture the imagination of children.
The book doesn’t read
like a preachy book shoving purity down your throat. It shows some of the most
common traits that young girls and women look for in a man. Prince Peacock is
handsome and mighty. He has one flaw he is full of himself and too self-centered.
Next, you meet Prince Romance who is charming and would spoil her and take her
to many places. This prince would lose interest and his feelings would wane for
her when his excitement of spoiling her fades away. The last suitor is Prince
Treasurechest. He is very materialistic and would shower her with treasure and
give her the finest things. Her kiss
would not be special to him as his eyes are on the treasures this world has to offer.
Many suitors came to try and win her hand in marriage.
Would she ever find
a husband who was worthy of her kiss? Her mother reminds her that God will
bring her a husband, that would truly treasure her. A simple farmer comes to the castle asking to
see the princess. The simple man told her, “I have no gold and have no means to
take her to exotic places. He whispers
all I have is one special gift to offer you. He had God’s gift that was given
to him on the day he was born and saved it for the special woman who would become
his wife. The book ends with 1 Timothy
1:5.
