Protestant: Maybe, Catholic: No
By H. Indahl
This book is a part of a series of biographies on heroes of the Bible. Published by Zondervan, Mary by Nancy I Sanders is a well organized and well illustrated book for elementary ages. It has a reading level of 2.1-2.5 and is full of beautiful illustrations, maps, and fun facts about the culture and times in which Mary lived. It really read like a biography of Mary, with information filled in from biblical context and other historical resources.
Overall I loved the layout of this book and would be interested to see more of the titles from this series. I hesitate to recommend this title, however, because of a few specific concerns.
First of all, the book is not well referenced. Bible passages are paraphrased and some have direct links to quotations, but others do not. The same translation is not used consistently. I was particularly bothered by the references to Mary's daughters, Jesus' sisters. While the Bible does refer to Jesus' brothers, and there is debate amongst Catholic and Protestant Christians if this is a spiritual brother or biological brother or cousins, I am aware of no reference that refers to sisters. Maybe it is nice and cutesy to think of a happy large family, but the existence of sisters is certainly not a fact (Biblical or otherwise). I wouldn't want to confuse kids with that perception hidden among other information, however accurate the other information is. When I find glaring misquotes such as this, I tend to be wary of the rest of the information no matter how good it sounds.
Second of all, the book is full of beautiful artwork and images that are all referenced to shutterstock or other online image galleries. I would have loved to have a specific reference to which artist painted each image. Some of them I knew, but others were clearly works of art that came without a reference. I think it was a disservice to the children who read this book not to include the proper sourcing. Mary has been well documented historically in art and there is no good reason to not give those artists credit for their work!
Overall thoughts? Definitely recommend for my protestant friends as one of the most thorough (even if not most accurate) biographies on Mary I have seen, even though I find it pulls up short of embracing the entirety of Mary's divine nature. Definitely do not recommend for my Catholic friends, however, as this will probably confuse your children in light of what our Church teaches regarding the divinity of the Blessed Mother. I was surprised to see how many of the reviewers noted how it would be a perfect first communion gift or resource for a Catholic school project. In fact, if not for those reviews I never would have selected this book for review in the first place!
In exchange for an honest review, I was provided with a free copy of this book through the BookLook bloggers program. All opinions are my own.

Leona's Review:
This book is about Mary, the mother of Jesus.
The book is dedicated to: Gertrude Toppin- at 94 the sweetness of Christ from your ever-present smile just as brightly as ever!
There is a Table of Contents which has 12 chapters, Timeline of Mary, Glossary, Selected Bibliography, Source Notes, Student Resources, About the Author.
The chapters are: A Daughter in the House of Jacob, Engaged to Be Married, Birth of the Firstborn Son, The Newborn King, The Town of Nazareth, Mary and Joseph's Home, Sharing Faith with Her Family, Holidays are Holy Days, Life and Death, Dealing with the Messiah, At the Cross and A New Beginning.
Get to Know Mary in the first chapter has Mary as a young girl. It gives the reader information of what life was like during this time.
Some facts about the Jewish people at this time are some poor people lived in caves; there were different coins, Jewish, Romans and Greek; a large stone jar weighed about 1000 pounds; there are seven main Jewish Holidays or Feasts, the marketplace could be on any day except the Sabbath and in Jewish tradition, a new day started at sunset and lasted until sunset the next day.
Get to Know This Book has features that are circles and inside the circle a symbol such as an oil lamp or scroll. They are: Scripture, look for an oil lamp to read a Scripture from the Bible ; Bible Hero, look for a sandal for information about a Bible hero; Eyewitness Account, look for picture of an eye each time someone who saw what happened tells about it; Did You Know?, look for a clay jar to learn fun facts; and Word Bank, look for a scroll to learn the meanings of new words. It is a great teaching method for the children and also adults.
I learned quite a bit of the Jewish people. It is a good book for young people. I suggest reading a chapter at a time.
There are maps and pictures which are always appreciated by this reader.
I am giving Get to Know Mary a 5 star rating. I received a complimentary copy from booksneeze.com to read and review. The opinions are my own.

Realistic and interesting
By J. Lietz
Get to Know Mary: A Full-color Biography for Kids by Nancy I. Sanders offers a way for kids to get to learn about this very important mother and woman in history.
What I liked the most about the content of the book was that it wasn't sensational and that it was fairly realistic about the times. There is also artwork commemorating special parts of her life.
The book is aimed at kids ages 8 to 10 or so, or a 3rd to 5th grade reading level. There is a word bank, maps and facts as well as references to scripture.
I think this book would be nice for Christian homeschooling families or as a stocking stuffer or Easter basket stuffer.
The only thing I didn't care for in the book doesn't have anything to do with the content- just the center justification of each line of text. I prefer left-justified because it's easier for me to read.
