My Childhood Bible

I'm so thankful my mom cared enough about me to teach me about the love of Christ. she went to great lengths to find me age appropriate Bibles throughout my childhood. This one was my favorite and is the only one to really stand out in my memory now that I'm an adult. I understood the Bible message for that night and then we prayed and I got to look for the firefly somewhere in the beautifully illustrated pictures. It was fun for me when I was young and I still have my copy of this book and will read it to my future children.

My Good Night Bible

We love this Bible. This is the best Bible we have found for our 3year old daughter. We are very pleased that there is a story on the baptism of the Holy Spirit which is usually overlooked in Bibles for children this small. We definately suggest it!!She loves it too! She has worn the cover off!

Great book for the younger kids

I got this book for my almost 5-year-old son about a month agoand he's been asking me to read it to him every night. He likes to look at the colorful pictures and ask questions about the characters. The story is a little overly simplifiedfor the pre-K kids, so I usually go into a little more detailsto satisfy his curiosity. However, I like the style of thewriting. Its use of rhythms and repetitive phrases makes themessage easy for the kids to memorize. I'd like to get anotherbible with more story telling for him.

Wonderful...

This book has been a great blessing to us. We use it as a birthday gift etc whenever possible. It has always engaged the interest of our son, even though we have gone through the whole book at least three times. In fact he likes it so much that he remembers much of the content...what more could you want...!!

Fantastic Bible Stories

This is an excellent way to share the bible with a child. The stories are great and the pictures wonderful. The lessons and prayer at the end are easy for even a young child.It is a great way to end the day together.

Great quiet time book

In my search to find a way to introduce my 2 year old to reading the Bible, I came across this book. It is divided into Old testament and New testament stories. Each story opens with a "Jesus said..." or "God said...." followed by a referring verse. Ex: "Jesus said, 'Show mercy.' Luke 6:36" This story is about the story of the Samaritan and how he showed mercy. The stories are short, use kid language, alliteration, rhythm, and rhyme. The table of contents gives Scripture references to the titled story for parents of older children who might want to expand the story a bit. Ex: "Happy Birthday Jesus" gives reference to Luke 2:4-7. After every story there are three little sections: Quiet Time, Prayer Time, and Sleep Time. Quiet Time has the child help Night-Light reflect on the story by asking simple questions. Prayer Time has a simple prayer. Sleep Time gives the child a simple word to reflect on while they sleep.The illustrations are bright and colorful. Hidden in the colorful page is Night-Light, and my daughter enjoys finding him. My daughter loves it and will not go to bed with out a story. She will pick up the book and pretend to read it; saying, "Jesus said...." It is a pleasent way to wind down from a busy day and gives you time to sit and be quiet with your child while starting a great habit of reading and reflecting on Scripture.I recommend this to anyone with a child 2 to 6 years of age.
