Let's face it . . . preschoolers do not have a long attention span. The Bible stories provided in this book are not only educational but they are kept to 2 or 3 pages. . . just long enough to spark the child's interest. They also provide faces to the characters which helps the child to remember the stories. My daughter and I have enjoyed the this book as well as the Beginner's Bible videos. Reading this book to your child will give them a great start in their christian lives.

I purchased both V. Gilbert Beers' "Preschoolers Bible" and "Early Readers Bible" for my niece. They were very similar in text, illustrations, reading level, and layout, but the "Early Readers Bible" was vastly superior. I tried to return the "Preschoolers Bible" but with shipping costs it would have cost me as much to return as it did to purchase it in the first place! A very disappointing purchase, and I already know which will become one of her favorite books, and which will languish unread. Not recommended, there are better children's bibles out there, even by the same author.

My 3 1/2 year old son enjoys reading this bible BUT he asks a lot of questions because the stories are too simple, lack depth and kind of leave you hanging. I'm searching for a new bible that has more details with accurate information in it. His language skills are advanced so that is part of it but also just reading it to him makes me feel like I'm not telling him accurate information because the important pieces have been left out.

GREAT TOOL TO REPLACE THE RGULAR BEDTIME BOOKS ..... INSTEAD READ THEM A BED TIME STORY ABOUT THE BIBLE , WHAT A BETTER WAY TO EASY , FUN LEARNING ABOUT SPIRITUALITY & A FOUNDATION FOR GOOD MORALS . START EARLY ..... THIS WAS GREAT ... NOW MY SON ASKS ME TO READ THE BIBLE STORIES TO HIM ALL THE TIME NOT JUST FOR BEDTIME ......

As missionaries in Ethiopia and the mom of an Ethiopian child I really like the illustrations in this bible.
Jesus is not blonde and there are many shades of skin represented. I agree with other reviewers that there are better versions of TEXT out there for a child's bible but this has worked well for our family as well as for our missionary work. I think it is great for kids in that respect. We have "normal" (not way above average genius :-)) kids and our just 7 year old likes to read this to her 4 year old brother and to Ethiopian children who are eager to hear English and they also relate to the illustrations positively. Ours finally fell apart and we are bringing a new copy when we go back.

The church where I work gives these Bibles as gifts to children who are being baptized. They have excellent pictures with representation of all races. The stories are short making it easy for wee ones to follow along.

My four year old loved when I read to him from this Bible every night. Every page has a picture, and it really held his attention. I loved sharing the Lord and His Word with my son, through this book!
