wonderful Bible

this is perfect for my 5-yr-old. the stories are easy for him to understand, illustrations are interesting for him, and the size of the print makes it easy for him to read himself. highly recommend for young children!

Wonderful for beginning Spanish students

This is a wonderful little book - about 100 pages. It takes Bible stories and puts them at a child's level in Spanish. There are beautiful pictures on every other page. I found this book to be a wonderful resource for a high school Spanish coop I did. The kids were able to take their limited Spanish and actually read and translate the pages. As the book was written at a child's level, nothing was too difficult for a beginning student of Spanish to understand.

A SUBLIME BOOK ILLUSTRATED BY A SUBLIME ARTIST

I've spent many years teaching Religion to young children and their parents, and to my own sons as well. Because people's physical image of God comes primarily from artistic representations, and because 99.99% of religious art portrays a stern, judgmental deity complete with faraway gaze, we can be seriously put off in our search for spiritual inspiration and a life-altering relationship. Then comes Frances Hook, who shows us a Jesus you would want to meet, get to know and have present in your life. What a revolution could evolve if every newborn were gifted with this book, if the God shown here were to take residence in the graphic mind of every growing child, if this image of a living, laughing, loving Deity were to be the God we believed in. Each time I give the gift of a religious book illustrated by this artist, I feel I'm giving so much more than paper and print.

Great pictures, easy reader, good bedtime Bible stories

Are you looking for a bedtime Bible story book for preschoolers and early readers? Look no further. Frances Hook, reknown Sunday School Bible story artist did the artwork for this beginner's Bible. The artwork depicts the story beautifully and the text is simple enough for early readers to have success and asks questions that encourage interactions with your child.
