Goodbook Partner Review: Welcome to Bible World by Mike Nappa and illustrated by Emiliano Migliardo

 



What I like about the book:
  • This book will build interest in the Books of the Bible, and help create more biblical literate kids. 
  • The pictures and seek and find are super fun and mirror secular books, but the hidden items and the attractions in the amusement park are connected to events in the Bible, and events that engage children in the events of the Bible and wonder if these concepts are really true.  
  • Scripture references with hidden items that connect to a specific passage that will create a more biblically literate person.  
  • The theme park entrances to different areas each lead to a different subset or genre of the Books of the Bible.  The titles given are more fun than traditional titles, and also more memorable.  
  • The intro to each park area share the main themes of this section of the Bible, and teach the reader what important concepts connect in each genre.
  • The author asks questions to the reader to build the interaction with the kids and the book. 
What I wonder about the book:
  • The glossy pages are thick and seem enduring, but I wonder if it will show fingerprints and attract dirt to the pages more than matte format.  

Educational Connections:
  • Teach the books of the Bible, teach the genres, and even the timeline as you build interest with this book. 
  • Have your children create their own hidden items for new pages or add to these pages with the bible references.  
  • Take away- ask the kids to see if other people know what books of the Bible belong in each theme park.  (The kids will need to remember the answer to know if adults or others are correct.) 

Thankful to partner with the Goodbook company and read a review copy of the book.
