The Child's Story Bible Review
User Submitted The Child's Story Bible ReviewsNovember 30, 2008 The Child's Story Bible This is the best child's story bible printed, true to the word of God and a great teaching tool for raising children in the faith. I was thrilled to find it still in print. November 25, 2008 "Don't stop! Keep reading!" That's the cry of my three girls (ages 4,6 and 9) after every Bible reading. I cannot say enough good about this book! I love Vos' insight and the way she explains and connects the Bible stories. The central theme of the entire Bible, Jesus Christ, is clear. The only thing that could be improved is the pictures are few, rather dark, and placed at odd intervals (not close to the stories they illustrate). However, the text is so wonderful and engaging that it doesn't matter. My daughters will sometimes scurry to find a picture of a story in one of their other Bible books, creating their own "interactive" lesson--ha! This isn't for the youngest children, however. They do need an attention span and ability to follow the story. But once they have that, this Bible is the one to buy! November 2, 2008 fantastic book for children AND adults This is a fantastic book. I love reading it to our daughter, not only does it give us both time in the word but I love the stories as well. The book reads just like the bible only in story form. I would even suggest this book to someone "new" to the bible. July 21, 2008 This is a must have for every christian home! This book is by far the best Bible story book we have found. I have been a children's minister for 20 years and have reviewed many books and this one tops them all. The stories are biblically accurate and incredibly easy to understand. We have bought this for every family/friend that has had a baby for the last 5 years and will continue to do so because it is so wonderful. June 17, 2008 Enjoyable this is nice to have. it hasn't become a favorite yet, but some of the pictures are really beautiful. the idea of passing our family history is wonderful and this is a great aid to jump start teaching your children their ancestry. May 30, 2008 great book This book has been great for family read aloud time. The story like format is very easy to read and understand. April 19, 2008 Couldn't put it down One day my 15 year old son told me that he didn't know the stories in the Bible. I got to thinking...I knew bits and pieces of all the main stories, but I didn't really think I could repeat them to my son. I was embarassed, so I went right to Amazon to find a book that explained the Bible in a fun, understanding, interesting way. I also wanted something that hadn't been "modernized". I didn't want to read that God is our Mother, or words like "humankind". I wanted a good old-fashioned, biblically true book. This one exceded my expectations!! I am halfway done and have learned so much! I read it to my son, and he enjoys it. I have not been able to put it down, so my son is not as far as me. I can't believe how much I DID'NT know. I would highly recommend this for anyone. Even if you are very familiar with the Bible, it's a great refresher. September 21, 2007 family time This book was recommended to me by a friend. I love this book!! My kids (7,4) and I read a passage every morning after breakfast. The stories are easily understood by my kids. They are short and capturing. Sometimes my kids will ask questions regarding our reading. I enjoy this special time with my children. Most of all it is coming from the Bible!! September 10, 2007 Wonderful next step for elementary-aged kids I LOVE this Bible. The writing is beautiful, the insight rich and thought-provoking. Highly recommended as a next step after beginner-type Bible storybooks. Note: There are some lovely illustrations here, but unlike the Golden Children's Bible, they are very few and far between. This is a Bible for children who do not need pictures to follow the story. May 7, 2007 The Child's Story Bible This book is one that has been around for a long time. It is ideal for teaching young people and new Christians about the history in the Bible. The book is written in narative form and is such that all people can understand it well. When I was a little boy, I used to love to read it and would benefit for reading it for a review as an adult. I would recommend it highly. For more The Child's Story Bible reviews click here.
