Let me first say that when I was asked, by
Mosaic Reviews, to review the
Waterproof Bible by
Bardin & Marsee Publishing - I was very excited! I'd been wanting and needing a Bible that could withstand the elements and my children. Yes, my children. Though they try to be careful - the pages on a Bible are just so thin and easily torn.

My pretty, pink Waterproof Bible (front cover) |
|
I love the design on the front cover - isn't it pretty? The entire Bible (cover, pages, binding, etc.) is 100% waterproof inside and out. It is made of 100% synthetic materials and, because of this, you won't have to worry about water, mud, dirt, sand or even a bubble bath ruining your Bible! I had to throw in the bubble bath because that is where I like to read.
Let's get down to business with the waterproof part! This was REALLY hard for me to do because I have always taken really good care of my Bible(s). I'll start by saying that nothing I did had any negative impact on the Bible at all. I used a ball point pen to underline or write and a dry highlighter (do not use a regular highlighter - it will smear) for things I wanted to quickly reference. Okay - now some photos!

That is my Waterproof Bible floating in my bathtub. I wanted to test it's ability to float & it does! |
|
Just out of the bathtub soak & float! No damage to the pages or print at all! The water just rolls right off. |
|
See the water to the left of the photo? This is my Bible laid out after its bath. It was really wet & there is no damage at all! |
Still not believing it? Keep scrolling ......
|
It rained & I saw the perfect opportunity to test this Bible out with mud. |
|
Time to clean it up! The water just runs down the pages and takes the muddy grime right off! |
|
Almost all clean again! |
|
Like new, again! |
Did you notice that the print doesn't smear & the pages just wipe clean. I also LOVE that when you write or highlight in this Bible - you cannot see your writing on the backside of the same page.
|
My highlighting & writing. |
So - if you are looking for a Bible that you can take with you anywhere - THIS is it!
