All the stories in this book--one for every day in the year--come from the Bible. Not everything in the Bible could possibly have been squeezed into this book, so the author Mary Batchelor picked out the most exciting stories and the best-loved ones. The Bible shows what God is like, and because God never changes and human nature stays the same, the Bible is always up-to-date. With paintings by John Haysom, this updated, revised, and understandable paraphrase features a Bible story for each day with a text based on the Good News Bible. It has 416 pages, and measures 6 3/4 inches by 9 3/4 inches. Recommended for ages 8 to 12.

One of the most fantastic Bibles I have ever seen for children. I highly recommend it to anyone with children or grandchild. Even as an adult I have immensely enjoyed the stories

A beautiful, accurate, and text identified Bible for little ones. It's perfect for nightly Bible reading as part of a bedtime routine. They will learn more of God's character and love as they hear more than the traditional Sunday School stories.

This is the perfect Bible story book for ages 6 to adult. It has clear language and covers even the lesser known stories in an accessible way.I use it with my own children and my Sunday School class.

This is the best story Bible on the market. It doesn't just retell Bible stories it follows the chronology of the Bible. My husband and I found ourselves learning basic information about the Bible that we didn't know as we read to our daughter every night when she was little. This is a Bible story book that prepares children (and parents!)to become readers of the Bible. I put Mary Batchelor's Bible story book on my gift list to give to all of the significant children and their parents in my life.
