Blog Tour Book Review: The Holy Ghost Is My Friend

Today I’m reviewing another fun book for children. This one is best read with a flashlight (but not necessarily after bedtime when the lights are out).

About the Book:

Get ready to shine a spotlight on the Holy Ghost! This unique picture book shares everyday situations and simple stories that teach children how to recognize the influence of the Spirit. When you shine a flashlight through the illustrated pages, you can discover how the Holy Ghost protects, comforts, directs, and witnesses of true gospel principles. A fun and illuminating book the whole family will love!

My Review:

This was a great book for kids. It talks about the Holy Ghost and how he can help lead and direct our lives, using age-appropriate examples to help children learn. The pages have hidden pictures that can be revealed when you shine a flashlight on the other side of the page or if you hold the page in front of a window. It’s a fun way to read and my children enjoyed it.

This book is probably best for kids in the kindergarten/first grade age group. It would also be a good read-aloud book or Family Home Evening lesson.
