Product Description

Once upon a time there lived a man and a woman. They were the happiest people on the planet.
True, they were the only people on the planet, but they were still terrifically happy.
Unfortunately, things didn't stay happy and wonderful for long . . .


The Bible is full of exciting stories that fill children with awe and wonder. But kids need to know how all those classic stories connect to Scripture's overarching message about God's glorious plan to redeem his rebellious people.

In The Biggest Story, Kevin DeYoung - a best-selling author and father of six - leads kids and parents alike on an exciting journey through the Bible, connecting the dots from the garden of Eden to Christ's death on the cross to the new heaven and new earth.

With powerful illustrations by award-winning artist Don Clark, this imaginative retelling of the Bible's core message - how the Snake Crusher brings us back to the garden - will draw children into the biblical story, teaching them that God's promises are even bigger and better than we think.

Great for use in a family or in church.

Ages 5-8 (read to me)

"I love what Kevin has done here! I'm buying a copy for each of my grandkids."- Rick Warren, #1 New York Times best-selling author, The Purpose Driven Life; Pastor, Saddleback Church

"The Biggest Story is a delight to the eyes, ears, and hearts of its readers. With rich illustrations and even richer text, the biggest and best story is presented in all of its vivid colors---every dark shade and every bright tone. Parent and child alike will feel the ache of the fallenness of human nature and the comfort of an always-faithful God. From our family to yours, we wholeheartedly commend this book!"-Matt and Lauren Chandler, Lead Pastor, The Village Church, Dallas, Texas; President, Acts 29 Church Planting Network; and his wife Lauren, writer; speaker; singer

"Kevin DeYoung has written a delightful book that both young and old will enjoy. The Biggest Story is a small treatment of a huge theme---God's drama of redemption, centered on Jesus Christ. Kevin's words are fresh, engaging, playful, and biblical. Many Bible storybooks offer pearls without a string. This one puts the pearls on a string---the right one. The result is magnificent and memorable."-Randy Alcorn, Founder and Director, Eternal Perspectives Ministries; author, Heaven, If God Is Good, and Money, Possessions & Eternity

"Rarely has one heard The Greatest Story ever told like this---with such winsome grace and compelling truth. Once we began, we couldn't stop reading the The Biggest Story aloud to our family, all in one sitting. Laughed, stilled, and wept by the last line---the moving glory of His amazing grace."-Ann Voskamp, author, New York Times bestseller, One Thousand Gifts

"So often, our kids hear individual stories from the Bible without fully understanding how these accounts are tied to the 'biggest story' of Christ's ultimate victory over sin. Kevin DeYoung has linked together the Bible stories that are familiar to children into one, enthralling volume. From the first page to the last, kids will come to understand why Jesus' death, resurrection, and ascension are truly at the center of all of history."-Jim Daly, President, Focus on the Family

"Have you ever wanted to hug a book? This is how I felt after reading The Biggest Story. It awakened childlike wonder in this grandmother's heart. The charming words and illustrations creatively tell the biggest and best story---the drama of redemption in Christ."-Susan Hunt, former Director of Women's Ministries, PCA; author, Women's Ministry in the Local Church

"In The Biggest Story, Kevin DeYoung masterfully tells the story of man's inability to be good enough and God's enduring faithfulness to his promise to bring us back to paradise. This is the big picture, not the typical moralistic way of telling the Bible's story. This book is engaging and wonderfully illustrated; your kids will want sit on your lap and have you read it again and again."-Tedd Tripp, pastor; international conference speaker; author, Shepherding a Child's Heart

"Besides the Bible, this is exactly the kind of book that I love to give as a gift. All day long, from infancy to adulthood, we are all invited to participate in different stories---wear this product, use this technology, vote this way, go to this school, follow this leader. What could be more important than teaching our children the Big Story? Kevin's retelling of the Serpent-Crusher's conquest will be beloved by parents and children alike."-Gloria Furman, Pastor's wife, Redeemer Church of Dubai; mother of four; author, Glimpses of Grace and Treasuring Christ When Your Hands Are Full
