Who is it for?

For ages 7 to adult: children, and the grown-ups who color beside them. The pages are big and open, and most carry a Bible verse to read together.

Does my child need to know any science?

No. The book starts with what children see at the beach and builds one small step at a time, inside the story. The worksheets come in three levels, so younger and older children can each find one that fits.

Do we need Books 1 and 2 first?

No. Book 3 stands on its own. Book 1 is where Nancy meets her friends, if you’d like to start at the beginning.

Which Bible translation?

Each verse names its translation on the page. Most are King James.

What will it cost?

The same as Book 1: $9.99 for the digital PDF you print at home, and the paperback on Amazon.

When will it be ready?

It’s being prepared for print now. Sign up above and you’ll hear the day it’s ready.
