A Kid's Review (MSL quote), USA

I got this Bible when I was 2 years old. I loved looking at the pictures- and they are very bright and colorful. This Bible first gave me the idea that there was a book about God. When I was a little bit older, It told me that Bible stories were interesting, and not boring and glum like I thought it would be after I looked at my dad's Bible with a black cover. After all, you can't judge a book by it's cover! Now I am 10 years old, and although I have a full text NIV Bible, I still love to look at this bible. I actually have 2 copies of it, because when I was 4 I begged my Mom to get me another copy of this Bible. I am extremely fond of reading, and I still remember the day I read it all by myself, When I was 5. Wasn't I proud! It's very understandable and in clear, big, print. I still treasure it very much, and I absolutely recommend this Bible to you. |

Our daughter received this bible for a baptism present. Because the stories require more of an attention span b/c of the length, we didn't read it to her very much until last year. This year, she will be turning 4 and she loves it! This is a bedtime reading staple in our household. We read at least 5-7 stories each night. It has given both my husband and I a better understanding of the Bible as well. The text is clear and the illustrations are vibrant and engaging. I truly would recommend this story to anyone interested in understanding the Bible a little more...it isn't just for young children!

My daughter feels very important as she takes her Bible to church, just like her Mom and Dad. The illustrations are perfect for toddlers-lots to look at, which leads to questions, which leads to discussion...it's not so much the text that teaches them, but the discussions the book prompts that gives me the openings to talk about God with my daughter.

I bought this book after several attempts to get my children interested in the Bible. I always look for metaphysical interpretations for children, but am not sure they exist. And I have bought a handful of children's Bible literature so when I read a review for this book I thought, great! When the book arrived my heart fell. I told myself, "another flop!" and was ready to send it back. But my little boy (8) saw it and asked me to read it. And he just loves it!! He asks for more, always more... even though he has tons of other books on his shelves. And I am thrilled. The stories are very simply put and illustrated, exactly like a child needs. Sometimes I shudder at the interpretations (at times a bit too classical for me), but an adult can always explain the stories. This book has an amazing calming effect on kids, and it seems to fill a need they have. Amazing! I think it is a perfect first approach to the Bible.

"The Beginner's Bible" is written at about a 2nd grade level, which makes it an excellent first Bible for kids to read by themselves. The copy we have in our school library is constantly being checked out by first, second and third graders. When they return it they are always proud of their accomplishment at reading a Bible on their own!
"The Childen's Bible," by W. Hillman, is a classic children's Bible storybook that's been around since the 1960s, and is better suited to reading aloud as it provides much more detail to the stories. It's never too early to begin reading things to young children with more content.
So, once your kids can read, encourage them to read "The Beginner's Bible" on their own!

I highly highly recommend this book. I have been using it for close to 2 years now. I have no children of my own, but the children in the neighborhood all think they live here ! How cute. They range in ages from 6 to 17. The older kids like to have the chance to interact with the younger ones. Reading these stories does just that. Its easy, so easy to understand. The beginning of each story sites the place in the Bible where the scripture can be found. This is excellent for people who want to make the transition with older children to their own Bibles. They can see where in the Bible their favorite stories are found. The kids in this neighborhood love it. They have me read it to them every time they are over. Its easy to understand, and is very colorful. I highly recommend this book. Its a must have !

I have been reading this to my six year old for about two years now, one easy-to-read chapter each night. We've been through it now about 7 times and he still really enjoys the stories and pictures. I think Karyn and Dennas have done a great job in simplifying the Bible and making it kid-friendly. I like the simple interpretations,too!

This is a great way to introduce your children to the Bible. The Chapter and verse is listed with each story so you can look up stories that you wish to share with your children. The subjects are presented in a short enough length so as not to lose the attention span of your child. They also make great bedtime stories because you can choose how much to read each night.
I especially liked the way that this book handled diffucult topics like the crucifixion of Jesus. It does not shy away from these topics, but presents them in an understandable format.
I give this book to friends for infant Baptisms or baby shower gifts.
