Timeless tales from the Bible

The most awe-inspiring stories of the Bible come alive with //The Random House Book of Bible Stories//. For generations, people have been captivated with the parables of The Good Samaritan, Noah, Moses, David and Goliath but most especially Jesus Christ. Select chapters and verses from the Old and New Testaments are successfully highlighted by two beloved authors, Mary Pope Osborne and Natalie Pope Boyce, in this timely tome combined with the vivid and stunning illustrations of Michael Welply. There is a dearth of visually stimulating religious reading material out there so this book is for children who would like to learn more about the Bible and are not enticed by heavily worded scriptures. The stories in this book are, of course, timeless; //The Random House Book of Bible Stories// will truly make a meaningful Christmas gift to children between the ages of 6-12 and is a great addition to any Sunday School library as well.
