Customer Reviews

My favorite children's Bible!

This is my go to gift for people with young children. I love this children's Bible it reads like a Bible and feels like a Bible. The art is beautifully done. My only critique of it is that they made jesus's hair blond for some reason. But even that has lead to some good conversation between me and my child.

Great edition for all ages!

I highly recommend this Bible Edition as it is great for kids and I’d recommend for the short attention span adult. Pictures are beautifully illustrated. I always buy this book for baby showers or birthdays. I bought one for myself to keep as a family heirloom.

EXCELLENT FOR CHILDREN AND NEW CHRISTIANS

I received this bible from my mother when I was 8 years old and I loved it. I passed it down to my son. He loved it. We're african american and we were not offended by the racial inaccuracies before we were learning the Word of God. God created all races and loves all races. The pictures are a reference to help children to visualize and get a better understanding of the bible. I am 36 years old now and still love it. This book helped broaden my son's and my biblical knowledge. I've purchased one for my godson, because of all the children's bibles available I still think that this one is the best. The print is an excellent size, so that you don't have to strain your eyes to read it. Best of all, the author doesn't change the wording much so that it reads closely like my KJV bible - not like a story made up from someone's vivid imagination.

A great way to intoduce children to the bible

This is a beautiful children's bible,the pictures are very colorful and it is well illustrated.The reading is easy and clear,but you might have to help your child on some of the names in the old testament,Which we all know can be hard to pronounce.It really brings new meaning to the old testament having pictures because if you teach children anything about the bible they find it more interesting with pictures.Plus they are more likely to remember the stories better.I will be ordering another copy in a couple of years for my niece to introduce her to the bible.

Simply Wonderful

Of all the books I read as a child, few stand out in my mind as much as this wonderful edition of the Bible. The illustrations are realistic and fascinating to young minds. This Bible is a must have for families with young children who are just beginning to learn about Christianity. All in all, this book is worthy of family treasure status, to be loved by many generations to come.

Captures children's imagination

This is the only Children's Bible I have seen that uses a style of language worthy to be associated with Holy Scripture. Combine this with outstanding artwork that truly captures the imagination of children and you have an excellent medium to help children grow in their appreciation for God's Church. It will also help Children to become accustomed to the language of great literature at an early age. The reading level is suitable for ages 7 or 8+, but younger children will certainly enjoy having these stories read to them, although the themes in some of these stories are clearly oriented to children of greater maturity. Simply use your discretion when deciding which of the many stories to read to your young children.

Overview Bible chronologically with realistic pictures

This children's bible overviews the Holy Bible with dignity and respect so often absent in "cartoonized" children's bibles. There are many quotes, but at the same time, it's written so that not only children, but also adults, will enjoy reading it. Anyone who is unfamiliar with the bible would do well to read this to familiarize themselves with bible stories.It helps the reader to put stories in chronological order. For instance,the story of David begins with his anointing and ends with his death.While one may view the drawings as 'old fashioned', I chose this book originally because of the pictures. They show the people as more 'real people' instead of the familiar cartoon and, otherwise, unreal characters.My children and grandchildren have all enjoyed this bible. And friends and relatives have looked forward to my baby shower gift knowing that they would recieve this particular children's bible.
