The Children's Illustrated Bible

Product Information

Very young children will love looking at the colorful pictures while the book is read aloud, while older children will enjoy reading the stories for themselves. The cover may have some limited signs of wear but the pages are clean, intact and the spine remains undamaged. There would be a double-paged massive picture, dark and gloomy and horrible, almost (but not) like a photo of what the actual scene would have been like. My top 3 essential Catholic kids' books for kids with short attention spans grades K-6: the Lego Catechism of the 7 Sacraments, THIS children's Bible, and Meg Hunter-Kilmer's Saints Around the World. Written in conjunction with educators, scholars, and religious advisors, Old and New Testament tales including the Birth of Jesus, Jacobs Ladder, Noahs Ark, and the Resurrection fill this little book thats perfect for sharing with loved ones.

The chapters of each book of the bible are simply written making it much easier for young children to understand, without loosing the theme of the original Bible. The somewhat lackluster illustrations on every page are not nearly as compelling as the stories themselves, but the variety of other artwork, including maps and color photographs of artifacts, plants, biblical places, animals, people, and architecture, makes up for any deficit there. I always feel that illustrated Bibles are the perfect way to get a child to begin his or her own spiritual journey. The text has been beautifully rewritten in clear, engaging language especially for younger readers, and forms a delightful introduction to the Bible.

My seven year old daughter loves to have me read the stories and talk about the pictures, she is especially interested in the photographs along the sides of the pages showing actual carpenter tools, clothes, jewelery, foods, etc. This volume also includes a "Who's Who in the Bible Stories" as well as quotations from the King James Bible, identified by chapter and verse. The brightly coloured, detailed illustrations in this wonderful children's Bible bring every story to life. The stories are well written and the illustrations lovely, and there is a lot of background information. Rather than many dumbed-down, Disneyesque versions of children's Bibles that I have seen, and rather than the somewhat lame materials offered by our church, the Children's Illustrated Bible connects with kids.
