Childrens Bible Stories

Anne De Graaf · 1998
88/100
👍 Worth It

Anne de Graaf brings genuine storytelling craft — eighty-plus children's books, a Christy Award — to the full sweep of Scripture, retelling roughly 300 stories from Genesis through Revelation in brief, manageable sections ideal for daily family read-alouds. Jose Perez Montero's more than 200 full-color illustrations give young eyes something to land on while the story unfolds. The result is a Bible storybook that has stayed in print through multiple publishers for a reason: it works for families who want to move through Scripture together without overwhelming young attention spans. The caveat is that multiple editions mean quality varies, and abridgment by nature smooths over theological complexity. For families starting a Scripture routine with children, it's a reliable, well-crafted companion.
