Zondervan, a division of HarperCollins Christian Publishing, is proud to announce the release of the Kingdom Girls Bible in the bestselling New International Version (NIV) translation.

“What a privilege it has been to write the notes for this girls’ Bible. My heart and soul are in every word,” said Jean Syswerda, author/editor of the Kingdom Girls Bible. “It was a genuine labor of love! I prayed as I wrote and now continue to pray it will impact girls as they read and interact with God’s Word.”
