It's an ESV Study Bible. Three or four years ago, I got a compact ESV Bible as a gift, and I loved the translation so much that I have used it for my personal devotions ever since. Being a compact Bible, it's great for carrying to church, but the print is a little small for serious reading. I have looked at getting a Study Bible in this translation for a long time, but I haven't been willing to lay the money down for what one of these costs. But my sweet husband did it for me today! And I don't think I've EVER seen a Bible with this beautiful of a cover before. Didn't he do a great job picking it out?!?!?!The second gift I received from my friend Charity when she was here over Thanksgiving. She and her husband went to San Diego on their honeymoon, and they brought me back this gift from the San Diego Zoo.
It's a cute little journal with a panda on the front! Aw, that's nice. But wait... what's the fine print at the top?
Made with real POO?! WHAT THE HEY????? Here's the back of the package to explain (Click to enlarge.):
In case you're not up to reading all that, basically pandas eat so much bamboo and a lot of it goes undigested, so they take the poo, clean it, and recycle it into paper, which they used to make this journal. That is AWESOME! And you know she and I are good friends when she would have the courage to give me this as a gift because she knew I would LOVE it!Thank you, Justin and Charity! I am so blessed with such loving and giving people in my life.

I don't have anything made with real poo. Life is so unfair.
eeeheeee!! u talked about the poo journal! that makes me laugh. :D and, wow! what a great job justin did. i mean, that cover is GORGEOUS. yay for fun gifts!!!
I have a book made of poo. It's a picture album from Thailand. Mine is made of elephant poo. I even went to the elephant dung factory. I don't know if it's bamboo they are eating, too, or not. But it's a very pretty poo book, as is yours.
