The Children's Bible in 365 Stories

SUMMARY OF THE CHILDREN'S BIBLE IN 365 STORIES One of Lion Hudson's most successful international best-sellers, The Children's Bible in 365 Stories tells the Bible narrative in detail and depth. Popular children's author Mary Batchelor retells old favourites as well as significant lesser-known stories from the Old and New Testaments. It includes sections that most children's Bibles do not have space for: poetry, wisdom literature, prophets and the New Testament letters. The result is a very readable and very thorough children's Bible - with an episode for every day of the year. Evocative illustrations by John Haysom reflect the mood and content of each story. Words and pictures combine to make a classic which millions have already enjoyed. Ideal for a child to read alone or for an adult and child to read together through the year. "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 "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."
