Scriptures for little ones

I was looking for a book with actual scriptures, as opposed to retold Bible stories, for my 21 month old daughter and came across this. It has short passages or verses from the Creation account, psalms, Ecclesiastes, Isaiah, the gospels, 1 John, and maybe others. And my daughter LOVES it. She wants to read it multiple times a day, and it seems to be one of those books that mellows her when she's having a hard day.

The Scriptures and illustrations are united in my memory.

My family wore out our original copy of "And It Was So". Its tattered remains are a cherished momento of my childhood. The Tasha Tudor illustrations are indelibly imprinted in my mind's eye...even today, I see them whenever I read or hear the specific Scriptures. I hope to begin another generation of memories with my children. The complex simplicity of each illustration encourages art appreciation while teaching memory verses at the same time. What a delightful way to end each day...

Next to the bible, the best children's story ever written!

This book has been in my bookcase since it was new in 1960....the story may not be new but, the illustrations are some of her best work. It has been read by my children and grandchildren with plenty of miles to go.
