Each of these stories presents the accuracy of God's Word in language children can understand. Comprehension questions after each story reinforce the themes and help readers engage with the text.--From back cover.

Twenty-four Old Testament stories about such familiar characters as Noah, Joseph, Moses, David and Goliath, Ruth and Naomi, and Daniel.

Twenty-eight of the most memorable stories from Scripture are brilliantly illustrated and uniquely retold in Classic Bible Stories, a richly designed, coffee-table-styled book sure to catch the eyes and imaginations of children and their parents. Composed by an English author and Italian painter, Classic Bible Stories reads clearly and looks remarkably fresh, placing insightful emphasis on often underplayed details in accounts ranging from "A Wonderful Creation" and "Abraham's Journey" to "The Empty Tomb" and "Thomas Believes." A verse from the Holman Christian Standard Bible® translation is featured at the end of each special story.

Chronologically retells the stories of both the Old and New Testaments, accompanied by illustrations.

Age Range: 4 and up. Too many religious books for young children trivialize the story of salvation and its many tales of mystery and majesty. Not these classic read-aloud stories!
