4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to Bible stories for young children, 12 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Children's Illustrated Bible (Bible Stories) (Hardcover)
I bought this when my eldest boy was around 3. The stories are clear and easy to read, while staying true to the style of the King James Bible; simplified where needed. The illustrations are interesting and vivid. The added pictures and text on related facts, background information and historical context are valuable and also great fun - they break up the stories for the younger readers/listeners, and add to the sories for the older readers. Also useful for homework or trivia quiz reference. I strongly recommend this book. It would be an ideal gift for a baptism or a confirmation.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not really a "Children's Bible" at all, 19 Dec 2007
This review is from: The Children's Illustrated Bible (Childrens Bible) (Hardcover)
First impressions are that this book has been shrunk in attempt to make it into a pocket bible. Just because it's meant for children doesn't mean it needs to be small! Then when you open it, the font must be about font size 6 and the picture sizes proportionate to the text.

How on earth a child is meant to maintain interest in this for very long is beyond me. It would be more apt for an adult or adolescent. I'll just have to hang onto it for 10 years until it's appropriate. A major disappointment...

3.0 out of 5 stars For an older child and Not suitable as a Christening gift, 10 April 2007
This bible would probably be lovely for a much older child (minimum 8-10 yrs). Sadly however, I feel it is not suitable as a Christening gift, which was my intention on buying it. I wish the age group for this book had been clearly shown.
