My daughter, who just turned 11, wanted this book after seeing the movie. She just loves it. There are pictures and places to write some of her thoughts, and the devotions are really good, in depth, real-life, thought-provoking devotions that will speak to the hearts of young people as well as adults. They have sparked some good conversations between my daughter and me.
This book was mainly devoted to bringing up all of the tough points of being a teenager, and how to make it through these times with Christ. I found it very inspirational and motivating because on each page, there was a Bible verse that coincided with the topic at hand. It gets repetitive at times, but it's definitely worth a read. It will inspire you to become a better Christian and a better person.
I bought this for my 15 year old daughter after she read the book Soul Surfer. She enjoys the devotions. For her, it makes spending time with God more fun. She enjoys all of the bible verses that are in there.
She wanted the DVD and I saw this as a companion. Our daughter is 24 and she loved it immediately and was already reading it. We watched the DVD together on Christmas day and I was very impressed by Bethanys story.
I really like this devotional. I saw the movie Soul Surfer and was inspired by Bethany's story. How she remained faithful to God after her shark attack and even now is more than enough reason to want to read this.This book gives Biblical, practical advice for young teenage girls and young women. I am a twenty-something, and even I am encouraged by it. When I am done with it, I am thinking about donating it to my church library so someone else can benefit from it.Kudos to Bethany for this devotional!
Bought for a 10-year old girl. She had seen the movie and wanted to know more about Bethany Hamilton. I read the book, too, and good story. I think Bethany is a great person for a role model for kids.
This is a great book for teenagers as it helps to build self esteem on sound principles. Bethany uses a very conversational tone and is able to write about the topics that would most interest the teen set. Lots of frank, good advice from an author who has had to work out the issues of life at an early age.
I loved this book. Bethany had her accident when my daughter was in Jr Hi. We followed her story in magazines then saw the movie. So when we went to Kauai & I got Bethany's biography at Rick Bunschu's church. This copy I sent to my east coast niece for her 11th birthday. Hope she likes it too.
