5.0 out of 5 stars Very cute and to the point, January 22, 2002

By A Customer

This book is a sweet start for Bible stories. It has 10 stories which are: What God Made, Noah's Ark, Baby Moses, David the Shepherd, Daniel, Baby Jesus, Jesus at the Temple, Zacchaeus, Jesus stops a storm, and Jesus is Alive. The stories are short (about 6 sentences long) which is enough to give a child the "gist" of the stories without being too wordy and losing their interest. Some stories are in rhyme. I think this is a nice way to introduce little ones to the greater, more complex Bible stories.

4.0 out of 5 stars For both babies and parents., December 29, 1999

By	"ting_guevarra" (Singapore) - See all my reviews

Kids would love the book design: attractive handle and just the right size would make them want to bring it everywhere. Colorful illustrations, pleasant to look at but not too much details for the young eyes and imagination. Story is appropriately short and simple, with Scriptural verses that would make them appreciate the Bible. Parents would find value in those the sturdy baby-proofed pages that would last till your next baby! Reading this to your child would be a joy. Don't worry about your story telling skills: you'll get hints (cheat-lines) at the bottom of the pages suggesting actions or movement that would capture your child's attention. I gave this as a gift to my niece, and my sister requested for the rest of the series..... (which were just as good!).

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent First Bible, May 22, 2003

By	Lori's Mommy (SC) - See all my reviews

I purchased this book for my daughter to begin introducing her to God and the Bible. She LOVES this book (her Biba). The stories are very short and the pictures very colorful to help hold her interest. She 'reads and re-reads' this book herself (she's 22 mos old) and carries it with her to Sunday School. The handle makes it very easy to carry for her and the clasp helps keep the book closed when not in use. An excellent introduction to the Bible.
