A Kid's Guide to the Power of Words

I read it with my 8, 10, 13 yr I think a parent should read it out loud with the child. We all took turns reading a little each day.

Excellent book!!! My 10 year old daughter loved it!!!

The earlier a person learns and develops certain disciplines, the more they determine the type of life that person will have—whether good or bad. This book provides guidance on a child’s level for a discipline that many adults are still trying to learn—how to control their tongues.The author points out that the tongue is a three-inch muscle in the mouth. Without it, clear speech is impossible. With it, a person can produce clear speech using words that build something strong or tear something down.In this present time where bullying ranges from cyber to physical, this book teaches lessons that are necessary across the age spectrum. I congratulate the author on his clear presentation of the matter and hope that readers will purchase several copies. Give them as gifts to children that are able to read and even to parents and caregivers of young children. The parents and caregivers can read it and start teaching the children early—and, while teaching the children, they will learn some things also.I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book provided by the publisher and Net Galley. However, the thoughts expressed are my own.

This was one powerful little book! It's perfect for the suggested age (8-12) and I would have loved to have read something like this at that age. I was reading it out loud with my 4 year old, and although much of the content was beyond his comprehension, it sparked some great conversations.I loved how this book was filled with examples and illustrations that pre-teens can relate to, as well as a lot of personal stories from the author, Tony, himself.Even as an adult, it has really made me think about what I use my words for, both in conversations with others and in conversations in my head with myself. Words are a wonderful gift from God, but need to be used with much discernment. This book does a great job of fully explaining the power our words have, and is full of practical applications. I also appreciated that there are reflection questions throughout the chapters, to keep the reader interacting with the book and looking for ways to apply the truths throughout the book.I highly recommend this book for Christian pre-teens as a devotional or reading just for fun! It could also be used for family devotions. I'd definitely purchase this book for others.*I received a free digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest review

Excellent. I received a complimentary copy from NetGalley and it is as good as the blurb suggests. Down-to-Earth with easy to understand language, fast-paced with some good humour thrown in, this will definitely appeal to kids. I’m going to be reading it to my own students as part of our ERC classes. Definitely recommend this book! A great choice for kids, parents, or teachers.

Amazing book to read with your kids as a family, helpful for all😉

Excellent book
