5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read. Got an A in college Bible because of it., July 18, 1998
I read it when I was 7 years old. The best birthday present I ever got. I couldn't put it down because it was so interesting. It taught me the chronological order of all the patriarchs and prophets of the Old Testament in a way that made it go into long term memory. Years later, I took an "Introduction to the Old Testament" course my freshman year of college. Ninety-five percent of what I needed to learn for that course I already knew because of reading "Hurlbut's Story of the Bible"when I was 7. I got an A in the course! When my two children came along, I let them read "Hurlbut's Story of the Bible", and they have both gotten A's in freshman Bible class at their colleges. In summary, it is easy to read, is interesting to read, is written in chronological order, goes into long term memory,and is my top recommendation for the best Bible story book to give to children.

5.0 out of 5 stars this book is easy and comprehensive for young folks, July 7, 1998
By A Customer
A copy of this book has been in my family since 1932. My grandmother read it to my father , my father to his sons and I to my sons and now to my grandchildren. I find the format that was used by the author to be as timeless as the subject. As a child I loved listening to my father read this to us and I know my grandchildren love hearing it read to them. The explaination of the meanings of words, the simplistic use of definitions helps us all to understand and picture what is often difficult ot understand in the Bible. This is an excellant book for the whole family. I recamend it highly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Comprehensive Bible "story book" I've Ever Read, May 13, 2000
By 
William (Cumberland Furnace, Tennessee USA) - See all my reviews
Hurlbut's Story of the Bible was the first and best comprehensive "Bible story book" I read and re-read. As an adult it remains my favorite and now I am sharing it with my own children.

Hurlbut's tells all the stories you remember from Sunday School as well as many that you may not know. It explains with clear and exciting language that is simple enough for children but also interesting for adults. It is almost like reading a thrilling novel, you can hardly wait to find out what happens next. I cannot recommend it enough.
