A Must-Read Book for All Ages!
Perhaps I am the only grown-up who reads children’s books to shed light on topics I
don’t pretend to understand. Perhaps not! For children of all ages, The Jesus Storybook
Bible shines more light on the Bible story of mercy, grace, and redemption. Even the
chapter titles are delightful. “The Story and the Song,” the first chapter, is a simple
explanation of what the Bible is and isn’t and describes the book as many stories telling one
great Story – “…how God loves his children and comes to rescue them” (p. 17).
Sally Lloyd-Jones has written an easily understandable version of the Greatest
Story Ever Told. Charmingly illustrated by Jago Silver, the pictures provide a fresh look at
familiar stories from Genesis through Revelation.
Each chapter provides Scripture references for the story it tells, and the writing
throughout the book uses simplicity and winsomeness to let the stories of the Bible lead the
reader – regardless of age -- toward an ever deeper understanding of The Story.
