The Children's Bible in 365 Stories: A story for every day of the year

Nice introduction for kids.

It's simplified for children. That's what is needed. I read it for my daughter when she was smaller.

I’m atheist and I bought this to read with my 7 yo son. My son attends a local non-faith school where they learn about religions, and this approach present Christianity as one religion among many, covering Christianity beyond Christmas in very little detail. This is problematic because not only is Christianity the State religion in the UK it is so much a part of the culture - you cannot hope to understand British history without a full understanding of Western Christianity, just as you cannot underestimate the impact the King James Bible had on English Literature and the turns of phrase many native Brits still use to this day. For this reason I bought this book to read with my son to start building his understanding of the Bible stories, characters and teachings. It is a very lovely book with each story set to a page or two with just enough illustrations to assist the text without distraction from it. As anyone who has actually read the Bible will know, there is much death, destruction and rape etc in the Old Testament. This book presents outlines of the stories with the worst of the gore and horror removed so it is appropriate for young readers. Highly recommend.

Beautiful book and it arrived quickly, but the package was breached in two places so it was lucky not to have arrived damaged

This book is a fantastic way to introduce children to Bible stories. The daily format makes it easy to read a new story every day, keeping kids engaged. The language is simple and accessible, perfect for young readers. The illustrations are beautiful and help bring the stories to life. A great addition to any child's bookshelf!

A really great Bible for younger children. My daughter has grown out of her "my first Bible" which was more for toddlers/pre school. Now she's 8 and needed more depth and a Bible that covered all the stories, this one has lived up to that and she loves it and wants to read one a day to go through it all in a year :)

Excellent value for money

I bought this for my 7 year old nephew and was so impressed with it that I bought one for myself! Sometimes it’s surprisingly refreshing to just sit down with the Bible and read it from beginning to end and because I never had such a nice Bible as a child, perhaps I’m making up for lost years! Reading the Bible from cover to cover is normally a mammoth task but is made entirely possible by a clever retelling of events. The story of God’s character, holiness and love, shine through on every page and it’s condensed storytelling at its best. This Bible captures all the well known (and many lesser known) stories and weaves them into one continuous account of God’s unfolding plan of salvation for mankind and beyond. The simple narration misses nothing out of the lovely spiritual depth and meaning and it does this better than most story bibles I’ve encountered. The colourful realistic illustrations on every page are a real bonus and help bring it all alive. The language may be more suitable for the slightly older child, probably from ages 7-12 as there are some long words that will need explaining. However, I personally like the fact that it doesn’t dumb the kids down. A beautiful book then, and a real classic that would make a lovely family heirloom; all at a very reasonable price. The only downside..? I was surprised at the lack of presentation page for giving as a gift. It would have been nice to have inscribed the name of my nephew at the front, which would have given the more personal touch. That’s a minor gripe though and the only ‘fault’ I could find.

Grew up on this. Bought for my daughters. The illustrations are powerful and attention grabbing.

Tres jolie bible bien illustree, les recits sont accessibles. Il y a l'Ancien Testament et le Nouveau Testament. Tres bien indexe. Il y a le numero des histoires pour les 365 jours de l'annee. Je recommande fortement!

易しい言葉を使って聖書の主要ストーリーを選んである。 キリスト教に興味ある人、英語勉強したい人にはお勧め

Amazing writing style, so some for children to understand and comprehend. I recommend it for every home for their children

Even though it's a Children's Bible, I love to go through it ,myself every now and then. The stories are very maturely told and the illustrations are a rare treat to the eye! I believe that illustrations help in arresting the attention of the child and in keeping them engrossed in reading and wanting to move through the pages over and again.5 stars to the publisher, story writer and illustrator... This book deserves the pride of place in your study/library or prayer room. Every Christian child needs a book like this to introduce him to the bible convincingly. As a parent, I'm very very happy with the contents and quality of the book.
