FAITHGIRLZ! READ!

"Faithgirlz!" is a line of products from Zondervan designed especially for girls ages 8-12 that empowers "tweens" to find inner beauty, uniqueness, belonging and the inspiration to pass their sparkle on. The products are based on 2 Corinthians 4:18: "So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." In short, Faithgirlz! is about inner beauty and outward faith. www.faithgirlz.com

New books coming August:

-- Faithgirlz! Blog On! Grace Notes, written by Dandi Daley Mackall

Gracie Doe, a keen observer of human nature, prefers to anonymously blog about her classmates at Big Lake High, not befriend them. But when a new girl moves to town and discovers Gracie's Internet blog identity, Gracie is forced to discover God's purpose in belonging, and she recruits three very different girls for her "Blog Team."

-- The Faithgirlz! Bible (TNIV), written and edited by Nancy Rue

Includes features to help girls imagine themselves in Bible stories; to bring home Bible lessons; help girls find out who they are; encourage girls to learn the Bible; get girls and a friend or parent talking about faith and growing up; encourage girls to journal about topics they might feel are extra private.

SALES MARK ARRIVAL OF NEW CHRISTIAN GENRE

The out of the box success of manga series Serenity has led Barbour Publishing to sign Realbuzz Studios for 12 more inspirational manga titles for girls ages 12-15. The Hits & Misses series, Goofyfoot Gurl series and Life! Camera! Action! Starring Serenity series will release early 2007.

Serenity, the world's first inspirational manga from a major publisher, is catching on and outselling its general market counterparts. Created by Realbuzz Studios, Inc., co-founded by Buzz Dixon (G.I. Joe, Transformers, Tiny Toons), Serenity is the story of an unhappy girl who finds a happy ending.

Sales of Serenity, nearly triple that of the current bestselling manga titles, have enjoyed success due, in part, to the crossover appeal of the books. Says Dixon, "Even in the secular manga community, the sales of Serenity have been very significant."

Stan Lee (co-creator of Spider-Man, X-Men, the Hulk and others) calls Serenity "a clean, inspiring Christian comic done in a hip, contemporary way."
