Veggie Tales: Pirates, Mess Detectives, and a Superhero

ARGH!!!!

So, if you are a kid, or a big kid like me, you might have heard of a crazy group of veggies that love to sing, dance, and tell amazing stories of life and the Bible.

This book is no exception to the rule. I LOVE Veggie tales. This is a Beginner's Reading #1 in the Zonderkidz I Can Read Series. There are 5 levels: My first, and 1-4. This book is a one.

The font is very big and easy to read for the newest of readers. The pictures are vibrant and add a great aid to the reading. The stories are fun and have the timeless Veggie Tale themes. It was great to see all the same smiling faces that I grew up on when Veggie Tales firs came out many ions ago!

The Daniel Plan

Without God’s power in your life, you are just running on your own energy. God never meant for you to do that. It’s like having a laptop that’s unplugged; the battery will eventually drain and shut down the computer. Why would you live like that when God created you for so much more?

This is an excerpt from the book "The Daniel Plan" by RickWarren, Daniel Amen, and Mark Hyman. I have read "The Purpose Driven Life" and "40 Days in the Word" by Rick, so I was looking forward to reading this.

For the most part, it's very similar to other healthy "plan" books. The exercises and diet regulations and advice are all very similar to so many other books out there. But it adds another element: God. God created us, God created food we eat. He did not create all the trash that most American's put in their bodies. So having this parallel with a lifestyle plan helps. I liked some the recipes that were in the book and I'm looking forward to trying it. The plan seems overall pretty easy to follow.
