Two tween Bible story books tailormade for boys and girls Get a glimpse of crucial points in the lives of inspiring women such as Ruth, Esther, and Mary or follow the struggles and victories of Joseph, David, and many others. In this series, tweens get to study the lives of courageous characters from Scripture to find their own favorite role-model. With questions to consider, the readers are engaged in the story – a great way to encourage preteens to reflect on and apply what they are learning. The two titles in the series are carefully aimed specifically at boys or girls and differ in choice of stories, illustrations, text, and layout. With chronological outlines in both titles, the readers are enabled to better understand the linear order of the Bible.
Questions, facts and introductions to each character give insight on biblical people that a regular children’s Bible doesn’t have.

The key verse for each story is listed in the beginning as the title of the chapter. The Bible story runs across two sections and emphasizes the key verse
It rained for forty days and forty nights, and the entire world was under water. Even the highest mountains were covered! But God saved Noah, his family, and the animals. After many months of floating, God caused the water to dry up. And finally, everyone inside the ark could come out into the open again. What a sight! A beautiful rainbow covered the sky, and God said to Noah, “This rainbow is a sign that I will never again flood the earth. From this day on, I will be with you and your family.� - Genesis 6:5-8:22
Even when the flood destroyed everything on Earth and the rain stil came pouring down., God stood by His promise to Noah and kept him safe. God wil keep this promise to you and keep you safe, too. 12
