This book is adorable and full of heart transforming truths. My girls want a copy EACH... that's four daughters to gift this book to. So far we're reading one day at a time and what treasures this book holds. Michelle and Lynn have given their heart and research to this book, I like that it has the heart of the Father captured through the writing of daughters and mothers. I find that this book is encouraging!!

Since reviewing this book myself, I have purchased three copies for each of my tween grand daughters. .Loved and Cherished is filled with daily devotional messages of encouragement, inspiration and opportunities to reflect individually based on their unique personalities. The authors use real life, timeless examples that girls can relate to their own situations. The devotions are quick but meaningful to read and support busy lives filled with activities.. The passages engage thought process that build a foundation for future leaders. The book is well organized and I like that it is co-authored which give insights from different perspectives. Loved & Cherished helps build confidence and would make a wonderful gift for any girl in tween to early teen years.

Lynn Cowell has a way with words and a heart for showing girls how loved they are. Loved and Cherished is a devotional that I know I will turn to over and over again with my teen. The bright colors and the easy to understand message each day capture her attention and help open her up to discussions. She is a little over the age this is geared toward since she is heading into high school but with so much social media coming at her each day I love that this is centering her and letting her know how loved and valued she is by God. If you are searching for a gift for a mom or daughter, this would be an awesome option!

Where were these ladies when I was a young girl? I could have really used this book! My daughter and I both feel like Loved and Cherished is relevant for all to use ,not only to tweens but also for females and relationships with people and our Lord.
The topics in this book relate to the girls right where they are. Also, it lets them know that right where they are is ok because God loves us right where we are.

Lovely journal type study guide. It’s quite conservative and American in its theology so this so worth being aware of as young minds grow and nurture their faith.
My daughter (9) found it a bit contrived and boring but I can see lots of good in it too.
Worth trying a sample first.

How I wish this book existed when I was a young girl! Lynn and Michelle have done an incredible job setting this devotional up to be readable, relatable, and to allow your child to exam themselves and their relationship with God. The world is messy but the Love that God has for all of His children is immeasurable. Each page brings this truth to life and allows girls to know, no matter what, they are amazing and perfect as they are. I love that this book doesn't pander to parents. It truthfully says parental relationships can be hard, some parents may not be there physically, others may just not seem to "connect", but GOD is there and his Love is infinite. The book is full of applicable suggestions to help young girls find support, guidance, and a deep connection with their Holy Father. I cannot recommend this book enough!

This is the perfect book for my 10 yr old. It really affirms that however she is feeling is normal and she may not understand what God wants from her but God loves her unconditionally. This book is perfect for reinforcing our daughter's confidence in her value and that she is LOVED!
Thank you netgalley and Zonderkidz Books for this digital copy in exchange for my honest review.

My 12-year-old daughter's review:
Loved and Cherished is a book of one hundred devotions for tween and teen girls. I really liked how the authors Lynn and Michelle reminded me that however I feel about myself, God loves me and cherished me. Each day includes a Bible verse, devotion, and journaling space. This is such a good book!

This is such a lovely devotional. I've been going through each day's readings and tasks with my ten-year-old, and she and I have been memorizing the scriptures together, as well. It's just the sort of encouragements and affirmations that she needs during this sometimes difficult age of growing from a child to a tween, and dealing with the uncertainty and stress in the world. Thank you NetGalley and Zonderkidz for the free book to review.
