Review:
This is the PERFECT book for curious kids! Most kids in this age group love being a detective and sorting through clues, AND they all start having questions about their faith and religion. As many are making First Communions or Confirmations, they may have even more in depth questions, that they might not feel comfortable asking. This book allows them to seek the answers in a way that works for them, age wise.
Using a found skateboard, as a jump board to how to run an investigation. Detective J. Warner Wallace take kids through a typical investigation, to discover who owns the skateboard, to illustrate how to find, test, and use clues. Detective definitions help kids out with wrods they might not be familiar with, Detective Tools, offer them ideas and tips for their investigation, and Assignments send them to the bible to hunt for their own clues (when kids find these for themselves, they tend to have more meaning!). Additionally, Dig Deep entries send student to the online Academy for more instruction and videos to learn from. Coupled with great pencil sketches and graphics stating the learned facts, the book is FUN for kids, while it helps them to answer their own questions! Once they've finished you can download a certificate from the Academy and make them a bonafide Cod Case Christianity Cadet! Or you can copy the one in the book (just make it larger if you'd like). Graduates are issued challenges, like sharing what they've learned from the book's course!
This would be a FUN book to give during the holiday season, with a new teen bible, a couple of mysteries and a gift card for music (to help you detect by), making for a gift that can keep on giving, long after they've finished the book/course. We can't recommend it enough!
