The Children's Bible in 365 Stories - by Mary Batchelor (Hardcover)

About the Book

Book Synopsis

Popular children's author Mary Batchelor retells old favorites as well as significant lesser-known Bible stories from the Old and New Testaments--including sections that most children's Bibles do not have space for: poetry, wisdom literature, prophets, and the New Testament letters. The result is a readable and thorough illustrated children's Bible with a story for every day of the year. Evocative artwork by John Haysom reflects the mood and content of each of the 365 Bible stories. Ideal for independent reading or for an adult and child to read together through the year.
Give the children in your life a solid start to building their own faith and learning about Jesus and the gospel message through God's Word.

"An imaginative arrangement, preserving the ongoing interest of a serial ... The illustrations are excellent ... and will hold the listener's eye if the book is being read aloud ... This selection provides a built-in continuity which other collections lack."
Church Times (UK)

"Written in a lively, easily understood style which still retains the dignity of the original ... The luminous artwork is realistic, expressive and well researched in detail."
