[Thank you to Moody Publishers for my gifted copy of this title in exchange for an honest review.]

I’ve enjoyed the adult version of 52 Weeks in the Word and was excited to see a student edition!

Recommended for kids ages eleven to sixteen, this title will be a valuable resource for parents to provide and use with their children.

This title provides a Bible reading plan, daily readings, a weekly lesson, activities, prayer prompts, discussion questions, and plenty of space for notes. I really appreciated that the author included a day of rest in her plan as well so that students can have a day to catch up or the ability to take Sunday off.

The vibrant colors in this edition are stunning, and the paper quality is good to write in.

Definitely recommend!
