Hymns for A Kid's Heart - Review

I just recently signed up to help review books for Crossway. I was excited to receive my first book and to get a chance to share my review with you.

My first book to review was Hymns for a Kid's Heart. What a PRECIOUS, PRECIOUS book to be my first one.

I sat in my living room one day and popped in the CD that is included. My girls are teenagers now, so we don't listen to a lot of CD's like this now, but it brought back such beautiful memories of their childhood.

It was so nice to sit with a glass of ice tea and be able to read the stories and histories that go along with each hymn. I enjoyed myself so much, that I didn't even realize how long I had been sitting there when the CD clicked off.

Here is some additional information about the book and cd. You can find out even more information and how to get a copy to add to you home library by visiting the Crossway Blog.
