FlipSwitch Series, Multnomah Publishers,
2006, 64 pp., $7.00, www.mpbooks.com
Small in size but powerful in message, these books add an interesting mix of humor, fact and frightening stats. With journal entries, letters and blogs from real kids struggling with
real issues, teens will be able to relate and glean insight not only from the author but also their peers.
The first half of each book gives current secular information and ideas that teens are bombarded with every day by the media. The second half is full of biblical truths presented in a bold way that encourage teens to read the Bible to find answers.
The books hold cool graphics and photos that will attract teens and are full of solutions instead of sermons. Two more titles, Split and Blur, will join these soon.
