I Can Learn to Pray By Holly Hawkins Shivers Book Review

I Can Learn to Pray
By Holly Hawkins Shivers 

Book Description
The more we talk with God in prayer—bringing Him thanks, praise, joys, hurts, confessions, and requests—the stronger our faith becomes. We’re not always sure how to pray . . . but Jesus says that prayer is something to be learned. And what better time to learn how to pray than during childhood, when habits that will last a lifetime are formed?

This 52-week experience is a terrific guide for families to understand prayer. From “Wow!” and “Thank you!” prayers to “I’m sorry!” and “Help!” prayers, children will learn what it means to draw near to God and to be changed by Him. Holly Hawkins Shivers, a mother gifted at connecting with kids, makes every discussion engaging and relatable, and helps young believers grow leaps and bounds in their faith.

Give your children a gift that will stay with them forever—the power of prayer.

That's Not Hay in My Hair by Juliette Turner Book Review

That's Not Hay in My Hair
by Juliette Turner (Author)

Book Description
New York City life had crammed sidewalks, gasoline-filled puddles, and angry taxi drivers, but Juliette enjoyed the towering sky-scrapers, the half-block walk to school, and the restaurant smells wafting into her bedroom. She had never cared for a horse, let alone a long-horn, when her mother announced their imminent move to a 300 acre ranch in Texas, where they would be caring for three horses, five dogs, twenty-five longhorns, and a cat … all by themselves.

Juliette couldn’t help feeling excited, even though she’d have to climb a hill to get a bar of cell-phone service. Soon she was running from bats and snakes, rescuing a calf from a twenty-foot ditch, medicating ponies, and having adventures so crazy it’s hard to believe they’re for real—but it all happened exactly how it’s written.

Get ready for side-splitting laughs, heart-wrenching tears, and surprising life lessons learned down on the farm and shared by fourteen-year-old Juliette Turner.

My Review:
That's Not Hay in My Hair by Juliette Turner is an awesome book! Author Juliette Turner is a teenage author and I have to say I very much enjoy her writing style. My daughter and I absolutely love this book. We often think of moving to the country and with the help of this book we can imagine just a bit more of what all that would be like. Although now my daughter would like to move to the country even more because of all the adventures Juliette gets to experience. This is a perfect book for girls and I highly recommend it!
