When I was a kid, memorizing Scripture felt like a chore. Danika is on to something special with the Bible Investigators series… not only assisting kids to memorize a verse, but also to understand it and apply it to their lives—in a totally FUN way. I'm going to buy these engaging books for every preteen I know!

Lisa Tawn Bergren Author of the God Gave Us… series

I am always impressed when someone comes up with a new way of introducing children to the Bible. And this book is very impressive, indeed. Filled with puzzles and challenges, it invites readers to explore the themes of Genesis, helps them to come to grips with some very sophisticated theological ideas, and equips them with the tools to understand the rest of the Bible, too.

Bob Hartman Author, The Kingdom and the King Storybook Bible and YouVersion's Bible App for Kids

What a powerful way to get kids into the scriptures and fall in love with God’s Word.
I’m very excited about the power this book will have on the hearts of children as they investigate the scriptures.
I’ve ordered copies of this book for my grandchildren.

4.00 stars Great for home educators

  Reviewer Program Member

This would make a superb addition to a home education resource library. Some aspects of it might also work for church kids' groups or midweek clubs. It's a hefty A4 volume - you really get your money's worth - of lessons based around Genesis 1-4, bringing in other areas of the bible where necessary to explain the concepts of sin, redemption and salvation, and crammed full of puzzles, questions and activities. It's designed for 8-12 year olds. My 10 year olds were picky about which puzzles they did - many of the activities felt a bit ‘school-like’ (which I think ...
