jectives. It would have been much more useful if it had been a scientific analysis of the subject matter in the illustrations. The book can be used, however, on the basis of its table of contents and divisions, both of which are in alphabetical order. 254 pages; cloth; Zondervan Publ. House, Grand Rapids; $3.95. Pete and Penny Know and Grow By Dorothy Grunbock Johnston While the subtitle of this book is “Delightful Devotional Readings for Boys and Girls,” it is not organized like a daily devotional manual. It consists of short readings of a couple of pages depicting the life of a fam­ ily with children who are at the age when family devotions ought to be­ come a habit. The book can be used as a devotional reading itself, or inter­ spersed with Bible readings or it can be turned over to the children for their own reading. A story is pre­ sented in each, with a Bible truth or teaching and the Scripture passage involved. This is the second in a series of Pete and Penny books. 191 pages; paper over boards; Scripture Press, Wheaton, 111.; $2.50 END. THE CHRISTIAN'S DAILY GUIDE by William S.

Phillips. 50 pages; cloth; The Macmillan Co., New York; $2.00. This completes the translation of the entire New Testament by the British journalist and broadcaster. Those fomiliar with Letters to Young Churches and his other translations may be surprised to find here a language a little closer to the familiar authorized translation than in some of his others. A retreat to the more literal form, rather than an excursion into an expanded illumination is explained as fol­ lows: "Who can explain or expand if both mys­ tery and compression are felt to be an essen­ tia! part of the original writing? If the author intends a mystery, then the translator must transmit a mystery; if the author is deliberately obscure the translator can only reproduce the obscurity!" The King's Business/July 1958
