Book Synopsis

Turn curiosity into understanding with hands-on journeys through history, science, and beyond.

Cherished and revered stories of the New Testament come to life with interactive, tactile features and memorable moments! Bursting with moving parts, pull tabs, wheels, touch-and-feel spots, and other interactive features, The Interactive New Testament teaches kids about the life, parables, and the miracles of Jesus in an interactive format that's as engaging as it is fun!

Open a flap to see the inside of a crowded inn; spin a wheel to learn about each of the apostles; flip tabs to see the meaning of the Lord's Prayer; pull a tab to see water turn into wine; rub your finger to feel the size of a mustard seed; open the empty tomb on Easter morning; and much, much more!

Sidebars and definitions provide extra details about everyday life during the time of Jesus--from food to Roman history to Jewish customs--providing helpful context for the New Testament's stories. Covering the life of Jesus and a bit of the ministry of Paul and the early apostles, The Interactive New Testament is an engaging way to help young kids fall in love with the stories of the New Testament.
