The Stories of the Bible: An Inspiring Christian Storybook for KidsĀ by Durand Loy revisits some of the Bible's most memorable stories. Like the Bible, it starts with creating animals, land, sea, and light. Readers met our world'sĀ first humans,Ā Adam and Eve, in the notorious Garden of Eden. Depending on your reader's age, they might be familiar with some of the mini-stories such as "Noah's Ark," "The Birth of Jesus," "The Three Wise Men," and "David and Goliath." There might be several new stories that kids are less familiar with: "Deborah the Prophet" and "The Mustard Seed."
The Stories of the Bible: An Inspiring Christian Storybook for KidsĀ is a beautifully illustrated book tailored for children but can reach and be loved by readers young and old. If you feel the Bible is too confusing or has too much to digest but still want to learn about biblical figures, I recommend you read the illustrated version first. It breaks down key moments in the oversized book into one-paragraph stories and offers the biblical location for further exploration. For example, "The Healing of Blind Bartimaeus" can be found in Mark 10:46-52.
Each story summarizes key events like "Daniel in the Lion's Den" and "The Ten Commandments" pretty well. The passages do not go in-depth but leave room for open discussion. For instance, kids might ask what happened to Joseph after his brothers "sold him." What was God's plan for him? Depending on the audience's age, they might inquire about the other commandmentsĀ not listedĀ in this book. A child might wonder if a whale can ingest a person, as portrayed in "Jonah and the Whale." Due to a whale's narrowness of their esophagus, many scientists say no. But ask your children or class their opinion on this matter.Ā
The Stories of the Bible: An Inspiring Christian Storybook for KidsĀ is a great first Bible for young readers. Its vibrant illustrations brought the stories to life. Every reader will have their favorite scene; mine features the whale spitting out Jonah. The sea animal appears to be wearing a toothy smile as if he enjoyed spitting the man out of its large mouth.Ā
The Stories of the Bible: An Inspiring Christian Storybook for KidsĀ would be an excellent addition to any Christian-based school or home. It would also benefit VBS (Vacation Bible School) and Sunday school classrooms.Ā
