5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best children's Bible on the market!, September 26, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Family-Time Bible in Pictures (Hardcover)

We are very impressed with the pictures, text, and brief discussion ideas at the end of each story. The accounts of the Bible stories are Biblically correct. Toddlers show great interest in the book and often select it for their own independent browsing. Many of the popular children's Bible songs are portrayed in the pictures. This is an inpirational, educational, and fun book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Engaging and complete children's Bible, February 22, 2009

This review is from: Family-Time Bible in Pictures (Hardcover)

This is a fantastic Bible for young children, with gorgeous, engaging paintings. The stories are short and accurate, a great length to do one every day or even several at a time. There are 128 stories, so it's really complete, with great selections from the Old and New Testaments. A child would have a really good overview of the Bible after reading these. My 4-year-old loves to flip through and ask, "What's this one, Mommy?" and always wants to hear more.

A note: This isn't a sugar-coated Bible. Some of the pictures show blood and suffering and are dramatic, but they're tastefully done and not gory. I think it's especially captivating because the beautiful pictures are true to the stories and really draw you in. My daughter and I talk about death pretty freely and easily and this prompts lots of good conversations, but some might have a harder time with it.

I would think this to be appropriate for 3-year olds through mid-elementary aged children.

Phew! Finding the right Bible for your kids is an exhausting task. I spent more than 2 hours reading reviews and descriptions before deciding on this one for our 4-year old. I am soooo happy I did. We have and love the Children's Beginner Bible (it's perfect for ages 1 - 6), but our 4-year old son was asking very perceptive questions and needed a Bible geared towards older children. He understands the stories in this one, all of which stand true to God's Word instead of being changed to our time, and the pictures are beautiful (though the Adventure Story Bible had incredibly gorgeous pictures that seemed more interesting and appropriate for young children...we returned that one because of MAJOR Biblical truths they distorted/omitted). We read this every night and it makes for a perfect time with my boys (ages 2 and now 5), my favorite part of each day. They are EXCITED to read it each night, even after owning it for a year.
