Lions, sheep, a serpent, ravens, a dove, a whale, plagues of frogs and locusts - creatures of all shapes and sizes make their way through some of the most colourful stories in the Old Testament.

This is a beautiful book. The artwork is gorgeous. The stories are short and well summarised. Only down side of this book was there was not enough of it. It seemed very short. Otherwise, it is lovely.
Format:Paperback
This is a very special book with beautiful illustrations.
I bought this book for my little brother on his first holy communion, as I thought it was something in sync with his day but a less obvious choice than the usual gifts given. He loved it.
I love the way this book looks at the bible from a differnt perspective. The main focus is the animals in the stories and combined with the illustrations this trully is a remarkable book.
My only complaint would be that there is not enough of the book, there is only about five stories in the book of which are very short. Overall this is a lovely book and my 9year old brother loved it.
