Sixty Bible stories are retold here in easy-to-understand language matched by attractive illustrations. Taken from both the Old and the New Testament some are already very familiar such as the story of Adam and Eve, the story of Joseph and his coat of many colours, the story of how David defeated Goliath and the story of the baby Moses being hidden for safety in the bulrushes. The stories of the birth, life and death of Jesus are also included.
Here are more than sixty Bible stories, specially chosen for young children: a foundation on which to build a growing knowledge of the Bible. With bright illustrations and simple, clearly laid out text, this retelling is ideal for beginner readers. This reduced format edition features a pink padded cover to make a smart gift for the occasion or anniversary of a birth or Christening.
