A Beautiful Story

I bought this book as a present to my young daughter. I found myself reading it and found it to be a good, comprehensive story about the life of Jesus. This beautiful story about Jesus is based on the four Gospels of Mathew, Mark, John and Luke. The parables of Jesus Christ are told as stories which make it easy for young people to understand the Bible. The book has fantastic, colourful and relevant illustrations which give a good picture of the events and life during the time of Jesus. John Haysom, who did the illustrations, needs to be commented for a high quality job which should greatly increase people's appreciation of the context of the Gospels. If you are looking for a good present for your child, this is it. If the school library does not have copies, why not, if you can, buy them a couple of copies.
