You'd think that it would be easy to dismiss 'The Dragon and the Garden' as yet another quaint retelling of a story that many of us have heard over and over again. Surprisingly however, N.D Wilson succeeds at giving us a fresh look at this old story and, combined with Peter Bentleys terrific illustrations, presents a picture of the Garden of Eden that will no-doubt spark the imaginations of kids from three to ninety-three.

I can't wait to have kids to be able to share these vibrant, not watered down, lively bible stories. But until then, I'll keep reading them to myself.

So far, every book by this author is great. This item came right on time, and in very good condition.

This series is incredibly well done. N.D. Wilson's skilled retelling of biblical tales, in a flowing and poetic style. There is a second book in the series In The Time Of Noah, was released, a third called The Sword of Abram is mentioned on the back of the books but I have been unable to track it down. The illustrations in this book are incredible. The artists representation of the fall if amazing, Peter Bentley these books are pleasant to read and read aloud. My daughter absolutely loves these books. She asks for them again and again. These books are very well done.
