My Review: Looking for a devotional for a tween girl is like looking for a decent shirt for her to wear. Many sizes, too low cute, too flirty and some are just too plain. But when I found Truth & Dare by Ann-Margaret Hovsepian I knew that I had found a treasure chest for my niece.
Truth & Dare gives the tween girl ample places to write...like writing in her journal and it also gives a nice lesson/devotional with a Triple-do Dare at the end. The Triple-Dog Dare offers three ways for the reader to "live" her faith.
I liked this devotional. It's simple but yet complete, it's short but yet to the point, and it's in
kid speak."
I think that most girls would read this on their own and write in the journal places too. However, I think it would be most effective if a parent read and did the devotionals with their child.
This is a nice gift giving book and it's a great way to get a girl interested in spiritual matters.
