Review - Adventures In BoogaBooga Land DVD

More information
This is an animated children's dvd featuring Marty and Gerard, a comical giraffe and monkey, and their adventures.  There are three 15 minute episodes on the dvd each featuring a different parable:  the workers in the vineyard, the wise and foolish builders and the lamp under the bowl.

Marty and Gerard are very likable characters and the animation is very colorful.  I can see children under the age of 6 getting bored with the stories though.  I think the storylines are best suited for 6-8 year olds, but the animation is aimed at children younger than 6.  Maybe that was done on purpose to appeal to a wider audience, but I'm not sure it works in this instance.

I am all for getting God's word out to children and I love projects like this one for that very reason.  I wouldn't give this a bad rating, but it could have been a lot better.  3 out of 5 stars - good.

Review of The American Patriot's Bible, NKJV

To sum it up in one word - WOW! What an amazing book! This is the perfect Bible for any American history buffs and patriots. I knew that this country's founding fathers had great faith and relied on God to guide their works, but I had no idea how much of our country was founded on faith. I had read some of the reviews before getting this book that said how fundamentally wrong this book was and how you just can't combine our government, and our country for that matter, with the Bible and religion. I knew they were wrong, but after seeing the book I realized how wrong they really were. How can you NOT talk about the early days of our country and the religion it was based on?

My favorite part of the book was learning what Bible verses our presidents put their hands on while taking their oath of office. I also greatly enjoyed the full color illustrations and all the amazing, little known stories about our founding fathers and past presidents. I can (almost) guarantee that anyone who reads this book will learn something they didn't know about the history of our great country, the United States of America.

The workmanship of the book itself was a higher quality than the norm making this a perfect gift Bible. The typeface was a little small so that elderly might have a hard time reading it.
