Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
One Hundred Bible Stories
Concordia Publishing House · 1998
80/100
👍 Worth It
A well-constructed Bible storybook from a trusted denominational publisher — the balanced Old and New Testament coverage, built-in memory verses, and prayer prompts make it genuinely useful for both Sunday school and home devotion, not just a shelf decoration. The Lutheran framing is light enough that Protestant families outside the LCMS will find it usable, though explicitly Lutheran households will feel most at home. The illustration style is the one thing that may feel dated, but editorial quality and scriptural fidelity compensate.
