I searched a while before purchasing a Bible for my 2 year old son. He loved this one from the beginning. It is his favorite book right now. I liked it because of the 10 word per page limit. The characters are big, expressive and colorful. The essence of the story is captured in a way a toddler can relate. Hands down, it's the best way to introduce Bible characters to your children.

After spending many hours researching my toddler's first bible, I found this. It is written at a level to not only be understood by the youngest verbal child, but enjoyed. It captures and keeps a very young child's attention. It was immediately my son's favorite book, and stayed that way until around his fifth birthday!

My daughters both loved this book when they were three, but even more at five when they could read it to me. Written so they can memorize many stories while getting the basic stories of the bible across. Fantastic introductory book. Give it to your god children!

My three year old son asks to have this book read to him over and over again. He enjoys the simple "page turning" suspense in the stories. He will even sit still for the ENTIRE book (a major feat). This Bible will give young preschoolers & toddlers a basic understanding of Bible stories and get them familiar with its major characters.

The words, "Come inside and meet my friends" peek through a hole in the front cover of this colorful, inviting Bible made for toddlers. Delightfully illustrated, characters introduce themselves and tell their stories; everyone from Adam to Jesus!Parents and children alike will enjoy reading The First Step Bible at bedtime or quiet moments during the day. Created especially for children, ages 1 to 3, this chunky Bible is a wonderful introduction to God's Word.

My daugher is three and we've been through several devotional books, but this is our favorite by far. The illustrations are great. The stories are simple, interesting, and have several pages devoted to each story. I'm buying in for my two-year-old niece and I think she'll like it as well.

On our daughter's baptism four years ago, we gave her this wonderful book which she still often chooses for her night-time story, even though she is a big girl now. The editors have presented biblical stories that are of most interest to the youngest children. The illustrations are charmingly simple and include details that a child will enjoy picking out. The text is brilliantly cast in the first person ("Hi. I'm Noah. God told me to build a big boat . . .) so that the book "speaks" to your child in a personal way. It is successfully designed to appeal to a child's native interest in a good story as a "first step" into the Bible. Because it is so engaging, this bible comes off the shelf often as a well-loved storybook.I reviewed a lot of bibles before selecting this one and have bought it many times for other children. My daughter is now familiar with the major figures of the bible and has heard many positive messages through our reading and rereading of this book. Because the stories are short and sweet, we can easily stretch or shrink the bedtime reading to suit our needs. Most importantly, our child has been given a way to talk about religion and morality--a dialogue, I think, many parents have trouble knowing just how to start.Incidentally, because the book is aimed at the 3-and-under set, you won't have to worry about the crucifixion--it gets glossed over in a clever way. Likewise, Lazarus isn't "dead," but in a "dark place" when Jesus calls him out. We get the message without confronting death head on.

We used this bible for both of our children. It's great for ages 2-4. My son loved it so much he memorized nearly all of the stories and would "read" them to himself on the toilet. Priceless. We enjoyed the first person narrative form and the cute, simple pictures. Great kids bible.
