The Plans I Have for You Devotional
The Plans I Have For You Devotional by Amy Parker is a book of 90 daily devotionals. The book
is divided into six sections; each section has 15 devotions. Each section
highlights a character of the Bible as well as a specific thought
Each section
highlights a character of the Bible, providing Bible verses and stories to show
how the section title relates to that particular character as well as to our
individual lives. A couple of section titles are "There's Nothing You
Can't Do" and "I've Given You a Purpose." Moses is highlighted
in the section called "There's Nothing You Can't Do" and Mordecai in
the other one. Each section is filled with poems, stories, quizzes, scriptures
and other items of interest that relate to the topic of that section.
Black
and white illustrations by Vanessa Brantley-Newton are plentiful throughout and
are multicultural in nature.
What
I Like: Just
about everything.
What
I Dislike: Since
the book is divided into 6 sections and each section has 15 devotions in it,
and since the number "90" in printed in the upper left-hand corner of
the cover, I thought each devotion would be numbered, i.e., #1 - #90. They are
not. That's not really a problem; I just thought they would be.
Overall
Rating: Very
good.
Age
Appeal: I'd say
this book would be great for tweens and teens, so ages 9 and up would be about
right.

The cover would make me think it was for a much younger age group than tweens/teens. But I know the author does not really get much say about covers most of the time.
