5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Stories and fun illustrations, January 23, 2004

This review is from: Bedtime Book of Bible Stories (Hardcover)

The Bedtime Book of Bible Stories is designed for toddlers and young children, but will still appeal to early elementary age children. My youngest son and I enjoyed the book before bedtime, sharing the stories and prompted to conversation by the questions at the end of each of the stories. He is a third grader and is familiar with many of the old and new testament stories in the book, but still really enjoyed it.
The ten classic Bible stories in the book are written in perfect length for "bedtime", with a reflection question at the end of each leaving time for a few minutes of prayer and reflection before you tuck in your little one. Early readers will enjoy this one, as each page contains approximately five to ten simple lines of text. Stephanie McFetridge Britt's wonderful illustrations help the stories to come alive. This one will give you and your children sweet dreams and happy bedtime memories.

I bought this book because I thought it looked cute and had good reviews. My 4 year old now asks every night if I will read her Bible to her and I am excited to say yes! The book is constructed nicely and the pages are smooth and heavier than regular books. Also, it is easy to read and comprehend and the illustrations are attractive and easy on the eyes. Perfect for little ones! The stories are pretty basic and hold my daughter's attention.
