Well-Known Stories for Children

I especially like the way this book has been organized. The layout is also quite colorful with borders around the text and illustrations. The stories included in this book: God Makes the World Adam and Eve Noah's Ark Joseph's Dream Joseph in Egypt Moses in the Bulrushes The Ten Plagues The Crossing of the Red Sea Samson and Delilah David and Goliath Solomon's Judgment Daniel in the Lion's Den Jonah and the Great Fish The Birth of Jesus The Wise Men's Visit Jesus in the Temple The Temptations in the Wilderness The Wedding in Cana Three Miracles Jesus the Storyteller Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand Martha, Mary, and Lazarus The Last Supper The Crucifixion The Resurrection There is also a section of "Who's Who in the Bible. These are rich stories that teach children great lessons, like how to choose between good and evil. Every child deserves to hear these wonderful stories. During my childhood, the Bible stories were some of my favorite stories of all time. Each story has plenty of pictures. If you are reading to a younger child, they can look at the pictures on the left, while you read the story on the right. Beautiful Illustrations! ~The Rebecca Review
