True Treasures: Book Review

I was so excited to find out I was accepted as a "Gabby Mom" for Teach Magazine (now called Eternal Encouragement magazine)! I had to laugh though, because I definitely do not consider myself (or my blog) "gabby". I think I generally write to-the-point -- but I could be deceiving myself, I guess!

Anyway, as a Gabby Mom, I am fortunate to receive a new product every month and share my thoughts and opinions about it! This month's product is True Treasures, a compilation of the best of Teach Magazine!

What I appreciated most about this book was the brevity of the articles! If you're like me, you don't have a lot of time to sit and read without interruptions. While the book itself is not necessarily short in length (103 pages), the articles are short enough and work well to read during my quiet time or other break in my day.

There are six different sections to the books -- each focusing on a different area of life. From articles like "Do your Children Rise and Call you Blessed, or Grouchy?" (That one was convicting for me! I'm not a morning person, but I'm working on it!) to "Hope for Hurting Parents" to other articles about marriage, homeschooling, and parenting, I found myself encouraged and inspired in my role as mom, parent, homemaker, and wife.

The six sections include:
  • Jewels That Make the Heart Sparkle
  • Marriages of Solid Gold
  • Parenting Pearls: Practical and Priceless
  • Homemaking That Dazzles Like Diamonds
  • Homeschooling Nuggets of Wisdom
  • Godly Living That Glitters
If you're looking for encouragement and guidance, you'll find it in True Treasures!

You can find True Treasures at http://www.homemakingwithteach.com/. Enter code GabbyMom to receive $4 off (code valid until May 31, 2011).

*I received this product for honest review from TEACH Magazine as a part of The Gabby Moms blogging program. All opinions expressed are solely my own.
