Customer Reviews

Awesome book!

I bought this book without having read it first, which can be a hit or miss situation. It turned out to be a really great buy! This book is awesome! It explains what the Bible is, who wrote it, and how it relates to the child reading this book. My 2.5 year old loves it. I'm now wanting this whole series!

I Love My Bible!

What a wonderful way for a child to appreciate the Word of God. The colorful pictures and "every ethnicity" of children are purposeful in telling that the Bible is for all people everywhere.

Wonderful interpretation

This books makes kids excited about reading their bible and entices them to want to explore their bible. Just as we need instruction booklets to put things together, this helps kids to know that the bible is a instruction booklet for our lives and how we should live.

Invites young hearts to dive into the facts and fun of the Bible

Written and illustrated by Debby Anderson, I Love My Bible! is a wonderful addition to any children's library. The book is different than most picture books because it does not tell a story. Rather it relays facts about the Bible in a way to spark children's interest. It explains that the Bible is different from other books. "It is God's Book ... it is totally true!" The author emphasizes what makes the Bible so special. Here are a few of the fun facts readers learn: * The Bible contains science, history and exciting stories of interesting people. * "It is all about Jesus and how He shows us God's love." * "It will last forever!" * People can always learn new things about it no matter how old or young they are. * "Even though forty different people wrote the Bible over hundreds of years, it all fits together perfectly." * It is God's instruction for people. The author then offers a missional perspective. "God wants everyone to have His Word." She tells that missionaries translate the Bible into other languages and encourages readers to share what they have so everyone can know God's book. The illustrations are filled with diverse characters of several ethnicities. Every page is inviting and friendly, loaded with vibrant colors. What I Like: Everything! This book is an excellent addition to any child's library. It states facts in a way that encourages a love of and interest in Scripture. Biblical references are included on each page to reinforce the author's statements. I especially like the emphasis on application. Toward the end of the book, the illustrations feature notecards with memory verses. The author encourages children to give to missionaries to support Bible translation. She also reminds them to read the Bible every day -- anytime and anywhere. Like all of Debby Anderson's books, the obvious diversity is fantastic. What I Dislike: Nothing. Overall Rating: Excellent! The publisher recommends ages 4-7, but my three-year-old also enjoys it. Tanya -- Christian Children's Book Review (CCBReview *dot* blogspot)

Essential for any child's library

Snuggle in for another enchanting book by Debby Anderson, titled I Love My Bible! This colorful book uses Scripture in plain language and prose to explain to children why the Bible is unique. Is it a fairy tale? Is it a tall tale? No, it's totally true, says Anderson. Who wrote it? Who is it for? What is it about? These and many more questions are satisfyingly answered in this author's capable hands. Children ages 4 to 7 will happily develop a respect and understanding of God's Word, given the bright illustrations throughout. I Love My Bible! is an essential addition to any child's library. - Anne Walker, Christian Book Previews.com
