Praise for other books in the Indescribable Kids series: 'Indescribable has breathed fresh air into the devotional time I share with my sons. Each day's reading is not only inspired and biblically based but also informative and eye-opening. I'm so grateful for this tool that engages my boys and points them (and me) to the awesome wonder of our great God. Thank you, Louie.', 'Having two little girls of my own, I feel like I know a thing or two about children's books. This book, Indescribable, is so unique and definitely stands out from the rest. The illustrations are outstanding, and the devotions share the wonders of God in such a creative way. I think this is a book that you will come back to over and over with the children in your life.', 'Indescribable is the perfect companion to bedtime tuck-ins. This book will capture your child's imagination, teach them about science, and expose them to the truths and majesty of their creator!', 'Indescribable is the coolest kids devotional book around! The illustrations are adorable, and I love the way Louie uses the wonders of science and the world around us to open little ones' eyes to truths about who God is and how big and 'indescribable' His love for them is. I'm buying this one for friends and saving my copy for grandkids.', 'This book is so original! I don't think I've ever seen a book that leads kids from inspiring scientific facts into devotion and worship. The design itself is stunning, but the content of the book is the real hero. And if you can't take my word for it, take the word of my seven-, eight-, and eleven-year-olds, who are currently fighting over who gets to read it first at bedtime!'

Die man van elders, ’n titel wat onmiddellik my verbeelding geprikkel het. Gelukkig het die skrywer, die geliefde Helene de Kock, reeds so vroeg as op bladsy 27 vir die lesers ’n leidraad gegee oor haar gedagtegang wat betref Jean Botha: “Elders is iewers en tegelyk nêrens. En is dit nie waar hy nou is nie?” Dan neem die storielyn sy loop, en baie later kan Jean op sy eie stukkie grond staan en verklaar: “Ja, ek is die man van Elders. Soos Ou Paul sê, daar waar dit mooiweer en warm is.” (p.264)”
Die verhaal is veel meer as net een man se soeke na ’n plek waar hy behoort. Dit is ook die verhaal van Renette Brink wat met een oogopslag Jean se hart gesteel het, maar die prooi word van huishoudelike geweld en ’n narsis. “Haar man is verslaaf aan homself.” (p.211) Dit moes Renette op die harde manier agterkom. Nie ’n tema wat jou in die gehoor streel nie, maar sonder omhaal weergegee.
Daar is gelukkig ook baie heilsame aspekte in die storielyn ingebou soos ware vriendskap en aanvaarding sonder vooroordeel, tweede kanse, opoffering en dankbaarheid. Die geestelike pad wat die hoofkarakters loop, word ook subtiel bygewerk in die styl waarvoor hierdie skrywer bekend is.
Die man van elders is die derde in ’n reeks en volg op Diana se dag en Drome het ook asem. Moet glad nie bekommerd wees as jy die eerste twee nie gelees het nie, hierdie verhaal kan op eie bene staan. Dit sal egter ’n bonus wees as jy hulle sommer al drie in volgorde kan lees.

"Big Dreams, Big Travel" is an consistently exciting adventure that immediately draws you into a mysterious dream world. Wim Balmer writes clearly, directly, and without unnecessary length – you practically fly through the pages. Jay's journey between dream and reality is intense, surprising, and makes you eager to keep reading.
A great fantasy book for young readers who want to dive straight into the adventure. Entertaining, dreamy, and absolutely recommended.
Extremely helpful - hundreds of topics covered.
2 Examples:
- Consider everything already broken.
Everything breaks, even rocks eventually become sand. So don't stress about it when somethings breaks! You knew it was going to happen!
- Beware of the mushroom effect of your thoughts. (She probably thinks this now. She's probably telling everybody. Now, this person will... etc)
