Perfect Gift!

Our parish has used the Baby's First Bible for several years as a gift to the baby upon the occasion of their baptism. It is well-received by the parents and children alike.

Aptly named! A simple but complete Biblical introduction!

This Bible is wonderful. The simple (often rhyming) text, cute illustrations, and charming design are expertly done. Even better, it includes most of the essential truths of the Bible, from creation to the resurrection and even a sample 'law' and 'psalm'. We just can't believe how much it includes while being so brief and baby-friendly! Baby's First Bible does kind of skip explaining original sin. But for a text this short, it's not surprising. And sin is easy for a caregiver to explain along with the stories of creation (what did Adam and Eve do next?), or Noah's ark (why did the flood come?), or Jesus' death and resurrection (why did He do it?). We can't think of a better way to start learning about the world and our place in it. This is a must-have book for every family!

Excellent First Bible

I purchased this book for my daughter to begin introducing her to God and the Bible. She LOVES this book (her Biba). The stories are very short and the pictures very colorful to help hold her interest. She 'reads and re-reads' this book herself (she's 22 mos old) and carries it with her to Sunday School. The handle makes it very easy to carry for her and the clasp helps keep the book closed when not in use. An excellent introduction to the Bible.

Very cute and to the point

This book is a sweet start for Bible stories. It has 10 stories which are: What God Made, Noah's Ark, Baby Moses, David the Shepherd, Daniel, Baby Jesus, Jesus at the Temple, Zacchaeus, Jesus stops a storm, and Jesus is Alive. The stories are short (about 6 sentences long) which is enough to give a child the "gist" of the stories without being too wordy and losing their interest. Some stories are in rhyme. I think this is a nice way to introduce little ones to the greater, more complex Bible stories.

PERFECT FOR TODDLERS

THE SIMPLE LANGUAGE, PICTURES OF ANIMALS AND CHILDREN, AND SUGGESTIONS FOR COOPERATIVE PLAY MAKE THIS BOOK ONE OF MY TODDLER'S FAVORITE. HE LIKES THE STURDY PAGES, LITTLE CLASP (GOOD FOR FINE MOTOR SKILLS), AND HANDLE (TODDLERS LIKE ANYTHING WITH A HANDLE). I LIKE THE SIMPLE BIBLE STORIES AND THE POINT AND NAME ANIMALS. THIS BOOK IS PERFECT FOR INTRODUCING BABIES TO YOUR FAITH.
