I'm not a fan of children's bibles, as a rule. Often they're too preachy, dogmatic, or even dull. I first encountered The Children's Bible when it was still published by an obscure publishing house - a copy was given to my twin daughters at their baptism. I grabbed it one day for school

religion/bible/whatever classes and was amazed to find the kids - 9 and 10 year olds, loved it. The illustrations, rather than twee, faux-germanic or just bad were fun, vibrant, playing with the so-human characters of the narratives. Suddenly kids were interested in God-stuff, and in the stories of God's whimsical people. The selection of the stories was perfect, the delivery spot-on. I have recommended it to everyone I know ever since. Show Less

Summary I chose The Beginners's Bible Timeless children's Stories. This book contains many stories from the bible. The stories are put into a different version easier for children to read and understand. There are also pictures to go along with the stories. Some stories in the book are A Big Picnic
Personal I love this book. I read this to my children everynight and they love it. They are learning so much from this version. It lets children feel like they are learning about jesus to not just the adults. The pictures are awesome and really keep the kids interested.
Extension Idea This book is aimed towards the smaller children but my 11 year old son still enjoys listening to me read.

I recently had the pleasure of reviewing The Beginner's Bible App on my iPad. This app is so well done, colorful and full of lessons for the young child just starting out learning the bible. I loved the beautiful illustrations, the easy to read follow along hi-lighted words and the audio. So all
I am a grandmother so I do not have young children in the household but I think that this app is a must for the family that wants to share God's story with their children. I loved it.
I reviewed this app and was not monetarily compensated for my review.

the child needs to do is listen and read along. As well as the read along story there is a play section where the child can interact more with the coloring pages that can be colored right on the iPad. There are also jigsaw puzzles to challenge the young mind. A video game is also included in the first story pack that helps the child with manual dexterity. Each story pack can be purchased right through the app.I am a grandmother so I do not have young children in the household but I think that this app is a must for the family that wants to share God's story with their children.

Bible story books are such a wonderful tool to have on hand to introduce the young child to the Bible and the bare-bones of the Word of God. You can choose to have one or you can choose to have a variety so that your child can experience the many "tellings" and "illustrative styles" of authors and
