Rating: Summary: Deus Ex Machina Review: This book, as well as the more adult bible, relies on a trite deus ex machina ending so predictable that it could've been spawned by the toadiest of hollywood writers. Children should read books of substance, not fantastical pablum meant to brainwash them.Excellent illustrations.
Rating: Summary: My sons first reader! Review: This childrens book is excellent for children! It was my sons first reader! And I will never forget how he continued to read this book every night! What a wonderful way for a child to start reading the Word of God! This book has been passed down for years. There is even a Beginner's Bible Leader's Guide for ages 3-5 perfect for Pre-school or homeschool classes for children. We have used many of the ideas in this Leader's Guide!
Rating: Summary: Colorful, memorable children's edition Review: This colorful, well-written condensation of the Bible is a Godsend. It has been a perfect introduction for our son with its short presentations of Biblical stories. The illustrations make Old and New Testament figures like Noah, Moses and Zaccheus instantly visual and memorable. It is great fun reading for me, too. A great vehicle for sharing and passing on faith.
Rating: Summary: Short length stories, wonderful bedtime read. Review: This has 'cute' illustrations that children love to look at and toddler-level wording that they can really understand. This has been the favorite children's book for my 2 year old for quite some time. Every bedtime it's 'I want Bible dory!!!' Worth every penny!
Rating: Summary: Does a good job of presenting Bible stories for children Review: This is a great way to introduce your children to the Bible. The Chapter and verse is listed with each story so you can look up stories that you wish to share with your children. The subjects are presented in a short enough length so as not to lose the attention span of your child. They also make great bedtime stories because you can choose how much to read each night. I especially liked the way that this book handled diffucult topics like the crucifixion of Jesus. It does not shy away from these topics, but presents them in an understandable format. I give this book to friends for infant Baptisms or baby shower gifts.
Rating: Summary: Great First Bible Review: This is the first kids' bible we have bought. Our 6yo daughter loves it. She reads it at night before bed and also takes it to church. The stories are easy for her to read and understand, and they are written in a fun, interesting way with great illustrations!
Rating: Summary: My daugheter asked if we could give it 10 stars! Review: We purchased a few of these books to give to a local hospital. But before we could get them out the door, our eight-year-old daughter had asked for one and has now read it. She told the neighborhood kids about it and several asked if they could have one too. We were very please to pass them out and that the kids asked. I can highly recommend this as a first bible for any kid from about age 6 to age 10 to read themselves and the stories are short and easy enough to make great bedtime stories to be read to younger kids.
