Having just celebrated a very merry Christmas, I couldn’t
pass up the chance to help spread the good word about a new Christian books
series for little girls. I received a complimentary copy of The Adventures of Rooney Cruz: Hannah the
Belle of Prayer written by Erin Weidermann.
About the Bible Belle
Series:
This is a new series of books designed to give little girls
female heroes to look up to. Each book in the series tells the stories of women
in the bible through the eyes of a modern girl names Rooney Cruz. Today’s review focuses on Hannah the Belle of
Prayer. Since these books are aimed at girls, my 12 year old daughter honored
us with her review below.
REVIEW BY: Melissa Kinsman
Hannah the Belle of
Prayer is a book about a little girl named Rooney Cruz, a girl who is
bullied. She doesn’t understand why the popular girls are so mean! All of a
sudden, an angel ‒ Rooney’s guardian angel, Mari, appears. At first, Rooney is
in shock, and she doesn’t believe that that could be a real angel. Mari
proceeds to tell her about The Bible Belles who are Bible
superheroes!
Mari takes Rooney on an adventure to learn about Hannah. She
learns that Hannah is bullied also, by the mean Peninnah, who is rude to Hannah
because she is unable to conceive children. Finally, as Hannah goes to pray to
God, the priest Eli blesses her. After her prayer, God blessed her with a baby
boy named Samuel. Now that Rooney knows Hannah’s story, she wants to try
praying too. And she receives a bell, a gift from God.
Despite the fact that this is a children’s book, it is a
great book for the parents to read with their child as they may have questions
that will open great discussion. It is educational in two ways: it educates
them in prayer and also in bullying. The
book is a fun story with great experiences that will have any age group wanting
more BIBLE BELLES stories. I think
author Erin Weidemann did a great job!
