Ben became a reader in first grade and began to enjoy books in a new way. When I saw “Bible Sleuth: New Testament,” I knew Ben would like to read the words on the pages while solving the seek-and-find mysteries.
I gave it to him on our first day of summer – and he sat in the recliner for quite some time searching and reading. Like a “Where’s Waldo” book, Mike is hidden on each two-page spread, which also contains scripture, colorful pictures of Bible stories, and other hidden objects.
If he isn’t swimming in the pool or jumping on the trampoline, I’m happy to find Ben engaged in a book – and this is a good choice for him and other kids.

Tyndale House Publishers provided me with a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for a review, but Ben really does love it and I love seeing him love it.
