A nice "first book" of Bible references

Word-and-Picture Bible is the first (Level 1) in the NLT Story Bible Series. Each of the seven "levels" is directed toward a specific age range. This one is for infants, age 0-1. Using word and picture associations, this book depicts seven topics from Scripture: creation, Noah, Joseph, "God gives good food", Nativity, Zacchaeus, and "God loves me." Each page features bright, 2-D illustrations by Peggy Tagel. Biblical references are provided along with memory verses. All Scripture is in the New Living Translation. For example: "God Makes Everything" (the story of creation) cites Genesis 1, 2. The pictures show a colorful elephant, giraffe and monkey with the word "animals" and Adam and Eve with word "people." The memory verse is Colossians 1:16: "God created everything." (NLT) A die-cut "hold 'n' tote handle" makes it easy for little ones to carry this to their favorite places. What I Like: I love the clear, uncluttered format. It's ideal for infants and toddlers. The bright colors are great. The size (6x6") is perfect for keeping in a diaper bag. What I Dislike: Some stories don't have an obvious connection to the Biblical references. "God gives good food" references Daniel 1:3-17. It seemed out of place. Joseph was another instance of disconnect. The title is "Joseph's New Coat", the Biblical reference is Genesis 37:1-3, but the memory verse is John 13:34: "Love each other." Overall Rating: Very Good. Tanya -- Christian Children's Book Review
