1.0 out of 5 stars Cloying, grandpa-in-the-sky book, February 13, 2006

By 

Lydia Joyce - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Bible Promise Book for Preschoolers (Hardcover)

AGE: 2-5

FORMAT: Cutesy illustration of a modern child on left side, Bible verse with exposition on right. 44 spreads.

COMMENTS: The Bible verses are all in King James, which is horribly inappropriate for the targeted age range. The expository portions are often scarcely related to the verse, and all too often, they make wild, inaccurate claims about what the passage means. If a child truly believes this book, the first time he scrapes a knee or loses a pet, his faith will be shattered. The God portrayed in this book keeps anything bad from ever happening to any of His followers.

USEFULNESS: You might use it to come up with Bible verses for memorization, but you'd want to use a more accessible version for such young kids, anyway, so why bother? The expository sections are pretty much worthless.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this book... easy to understand, beautiful format., April 2, 2008

This review is from: The Bible Promise Book for Preschoolers (Hardcover)

I would definitely recommend The Bible Promise Book for Preschoolers!
The verses in this book are simple and easy to understand, and are accompanied by beautiful illustrations. There are different sections about being happy, when you're scared, being angry, forgiveness, giving thanks, and God's promises. I think the King James Version is very appropriate and simple. It does use words such as "ye" instead of "you", but it is still very understandable. The KJV is a very good, classic version of the Bible.

Here is how a sample page out of the book is (in the category "God is There"):

And ye shall seek Me, and find Me, when ye shall search for Me with all your heart. Jeremian 29:13

Do you play hide and seek?

That's a fun game to play with your friends and family. But God does not play that game. God will never hide from you. God is always there to help you, listen to you, and most of all, to love you.
