3.0 out of 5 stars This is OK..., December 10, 2008
This review is from: First Bible Stories (Paperback)
This storybook bible is OK. Certainly not great and certainly not one I would recommend. It's shallow and there are several inaccuracies. One off-hand I'll mention: It took Noah many, many YEARS to build the Ark not mere months (p. 30). Also, many stories have been omitted. A better choice for this age group would be "The Big Picture Story Bible".

1.0 out of 5 stars Missed the point, May 1, 2010
This review is from: First Bible Stories (Hardcover)
I found the stories to be so abridged and "re-formed" that they often miss the point of the original biblical passages. For example, "am I my bother's keeper" is not only key to the Christian ethic, but also a key part of interpreting aspects of Western religious literature. However it is cleansed from the story, as is the satanic nature of the snake in the Garden of Eden, etc.

I will go on searching for something that better depicts the intention of the biblical stories and go back to telling the stories by interpreting them on-the-fly from the "original"!
