The Best Bible from ages 1-100!

OK. I kept thinking to myself when I was little, "why are there so many Bibles?" Well, I got this, and I consumed it all in a week. I now know all of the stories from Jesus healing the leapers to Baalam's donkey talking. My favorite part, though, is the reviews to keep it in your head. There is "Look at THIS", which teaches you more about the selection, "Remember THIS", and the questions (making it a great classroom Bible) "Think about THIS". I reccommend this to any Catholic child. Fun and educational (takes occasional pictures with it.)
Absolutely the easiest Bible for all ages.

My husband, a United Methodist pastor, and I were looking for a good bible for children. The church had been awarding the third graders with bibles that were way beyond their comprehension and we guessed that the bibles were never getting looked at. We came across the NIrV and agree that it is the best. It IS a bible, with chapter and verse--not a storybook. It also reads across instead of in columns. The text is easier to follow and the pictures are wonderful. Since I teach a Sunday School class, I use this as my own bible. When I take this Bible with me to Adult Bible Studies, I always come away with adults asking me where they can purchase one. Not only has this bible become the ONLY bible that is passed out to the children, but it is also the bible that many of our adults are using. A bible is only good if it is being read and the NIrV is definately being read! It is worth every penny!

This Bible is excellent for beginning readers. My 8 year old son loves to spend time in the Word now that he understands what he's reading. The memory verse helps and book introductions are great tools and he loves the part about growing up in Jesus' time. I am buying more for Christmas gifts!
