Accurate Bible Stories for Children

Most childrens' Bibles either oversimplify the stories in the Bible, or change them so they are inaccurate. We were looking for something to start teaching our three year old the stories from the Bible and a friend lent us this book. Our son didn't want to stop reading it. We liked it so much for its accuracy yet understandability for younger children that we gave it as Christmas gifts this year to several friends and all our family with young children.

Lovely

We gave this book to a little girl in our church. Before we wrapped it, we started reading it and determined that adults love it too because we couldn't put it down. The colored pictures are fantastic and make you feel like you're right there with the characters. The stories are explained really well. We got our money's worth.

Wonderful resource for all ages

This Bible was a tremendous hit with our school's young people. They would carry it around and read whenever they could. Some parents came back to purchase another one for a sibling. The religion teacher highly recommended it and with good reason. It has no specific "agenda" except to put the biblical stories into easier bites for the readers and has attractive illustrations to accompany each story. Adults have said it has been of value to them also in their study and use with their families.

Great kids Bible, the best I've seen!

I tried relentlessly to find my son a beginning readers Bible while I was putting together our homeschool materials for this year (2nd grade for him). They were all either corny or too dry. I just happened to stumble upon this Bible while shopping and decided to take a chance. My son reads a passage every school day, he really likes it. I appreciate that the illustrations are colorful and very realistic...no bulging eyes (like in "The Beginner's Bible"). The text is well written, it's not baby-ish at all. I have to help my son through a few difficult words here and there, but he reads 98% of it on his own. I am so pleased with this Bible and recommend it highly.
