In this crazy world it is easy to get swooped up into media, fades and earthly desires. I fall short daily and actively try to turn from my sinful ways and look to Christ as my example. If I fall so easily into earthly ideas and temptations I can only imagine how hard that is on my small, sponge-like little children. I try to instill strong Christian values into our everyday life, but even mom needs helps sometimes.
When I saw Bible Belle’s when searching online for wholesome biblical based books for my kids I was instantly interested. “Wouldn’t it be great if girls today were just as excited about biblical women as they are about princesses? Wonderful, real life examples of true beauty, women who can be real heroes for girls today. That would be something. That would be everything.” – Bible Belle’s Website
Bible Belles’ The Adventures of Rooney Cruz is an original children’s series that highlights five superhero women of the Bible: Hannah, Esther, Abigail, Ruth, and Deborah.
My children love to read books, it is part of our daily life. Finding Christian books is not a problem. There are tons out there, but I have never come across a book that shows little girls the women heroes in the bible, and shows them the applications in their life. No matter our ages, we have room for growth. Establishing the Truth and a solid foundation at a young age can help the young girl in your life set herself up for a successful walk with Christ.

The Adventures of Rooney Cruz has had 2 books released so far: Hannah The Belle of Prayer and now, the newest book, Esther The Belle of Patience. In each book the main character, Rooney, is met with daily issues that you would find similarly in your own life. A fairy-like angle comes to Rooney and helps guide her through a biblical based story straight out of the gospel that is relative to the daily issue the character Rooney is struggling with. Putting the story in words that a child can understand, but while sticking with the truth of the gospel, you are given the “Bible Belle’s” story. Highlighting that girls play an important role in the bible and have the ability to do great things for God.
The graphics in the books are amazing! This is because a former Disney artist is the illustrator, which makes the book stand out from any other books. The colors, animation and design pull your child into the story, just like a Disney princess would.

I love this! My girls are REALLY into princesses and the message is mostly “girls can do anything boys can do”… which is fine to an extent, but I want my girls to know that they are created by God to be women and being a woman, doing womanly things is something to be proud of! I try to instill that in them in general – but having Bible Women in this format (instead of princess everything) is awesome!
August 17, 2016 at 2:53 pmThank you for the review..I love to win this book because the womens on there are fully dressed..It’s not like othe princesses book which some are half dressed..
August 18, 2016 at 12:05 pmWhat a lovely book with a great message!

August 20, 2016 at 10:02 amI love how cute this story is. My girls love princesses and this story will appeal to me.
August 20, 2016 at 1:01 pmThis is awesome! I’m glad you found it! Our children face things these days that we could not even imagine. Love the themes set here. Good job!
August 20, 2016 at 11:33 pmThis would be perfect for our baby girl! Thanks for sharing such a great way to connect young girls with Biblical women!
August 24, 2016 at 9:00 pmI love this!! We should be getting our children to idolize biblical people rather than the typical “princesses”. I love that they instill morals and beauty in our girls instead of the need to have a “prince to save the day” all the time.
August 30, 2016 at 6:40 pmThis would be awesome for my daughter! I would love for her to look up to these Biblical women.
September 6, 2016 at 12:34 amI’m so glad to to see biblical giveaways. I think it’s so important to teach our children about God and his word.

September 7, 2016 at 11:00 amA friend of mine was going to do an adult book study about the women of the Bible, and one of them was Esther of course. She has a little girl, so I was suggested this book series to her so she could read them with he daughter at the same time. She sincerely thanked me. I’m happy you introduced me to a great book series for children.

These sound like they would be great books for my granddaughters.
February 16, 2019 at 10:28 pmGirls need a strong female character in every aspect of their lives. This series is perfect for showing how a girl is “powerful” enough on her own or with the help of other females.
February 17, 2019 at 11:08 amI am always looking for good Christian books for my nieces! Their dad (my brother) is a pastor.
February 17, 2019 at 3:14 pmThis looks like a great book!
February 17, 2019 at 11:26 pmMy pastor is preaching a series of sermons on the women of the Bible right now, & I have recommended these books to a friend for her daughter. I’m ready for the whole princess thing to be a thing of the past!
February 18, 2019 at 8:40 amLooks like nice video to watch for children.
February 19, 2019 at 6:40 pmThese sound like great children’s books. I like the artwork too!

March 6, 2019 at 12:50 pmI think my niece would really get into this book
March 9, 2019 at 1:30 pmBooks like these were not around when my oldest two daughters were toddlers, but I always tried to instill the Lord and good biblical principles into their lives! I bought Veggie Tales books and DVDS into my grandkids lives. I am so HAPPY that there are books like this now that not only explains the stories easier, but includes illustrated visual aides – pictures to help them better and easier to understand. We need God in our children and grandchildren’s lives more than ever! Knowledge is power! Pinned! Thank you for sharing!
