You wouldn't think Gv would care about having a smaller, mini-version of her favorite Bible, but when this arrived, she went absolutely bonkers:





It's no secret that we love The Beginner's Bible. I've written whole posts about it and mention it in pretty much every Latticed Learning post I've done.

Even though we love it, I didn't expect to care anything about keeping an extra version of it lying around the house.

But I quickly learned I didn't have a say in the matter...

"Wow! I love it!" Gv exclaimed, when we pried open the box and she saw this little book sitting on the top of the stack.

"What on earth do you love so much about it?" I asked, wondering why she would care about a smaller version that contains fewer stories than the one she already has.

"The handle!" she exclaimed! "I love the handle, so I can take it around and around and around, and the flappy thingy (clearly she inherited my refined technical language) on the end, that keeps it closed!"

Ah. What I'd thought was merely a couple of gimmicks turned out to be quite important, in the eyes of a child.


Cool red carrying handle, along with the "flappy thingy" on the other end.

And carry it around and around and around, she does.

I don't know if I'd go so far as to say it's become her purse, but that thing now comes everywhere with us.

She just enjoys bringing it along, and since she can easily carry it all by herself, I don't mind adding it to the collection of 537 other things that she's amassed in the back seat, none of which I'm willing to allow to leave the car, since I don't want to end up being the one to carry any of it!

The best part is, Gv now has even more of an opportunity to read her Bible.



Even though this version includes only 26 of the 90 stories included in the original, the folks who chose which ones to include must have asked plenty of kids to help in the selection, because these 26 are some of Gv's absolute favorites!




I had originally thought this book would be for the toddler crowd only, but after seeing how much Gv loves bringing it with her wherever she goes, I feel its reach definitely extends through the preschool years, and possibly a bit beyond, as well.



It would make a cute little gift for a special child in your life. I love how it's not just a book, but a book with a handle! and a flappy thingy! Additions, which are, apparently a really big deal. Find it here and watch your little one carry it around, and around, and around!

Do you like the idea of a Bible that can easily go anywhere your child does?  I'd love to hear!  Either leave a comment below or email me at lisahealy (at) outlook (dot) com.

I love it and I'm glad that Gv could still enjoy it, even though she was a bit old for it!
These are great and I had one for both of my kiddos. Thank you for sharing at Dishing it and Digging it link party.

Yes! It really is!
I loved the comment of 537 things in the back seat lol. That is a perfect description of mothering a preschooler lol. Its great that she loves books and the bible so much, its a testimony to her parenting. I can just see her running around the house holding her book by the handle all by herself. Great book obviously.

Awww, thanks for the encouragement, Leanna! And I'm glad you could relate to the stuff in the back seat! Ha!
My kids are total suckers for the handles and flappy closey things too! :) Thanks so much for linking this up at Booknificent Thursday on Mommynificent.com this week!

I'm so glad there are other kids out there who go crazy over all the handles and flappy closey things, too! I just asked Gv recently if she still wanted to keep it (since she really is kind of old for it), but she went bonkers, saying that OF COURSE she wanted to keep it, because what ELSE would she cart around with her all the time?
