We already own three other Deep Blue Bibles--two geared to younger readers, and one geared toward high school/college aged readers. We love them for the translations as much as for the guidance they give to readers: historical background as well as questions to help them gain a deeper understanding and make connections to themselves and the world. That's what I was hoping for with this storybook Bible, and that's what we got.This is a wonderfully age-appropriate storybook Bible. What I like most about it is that it tells the Biblical stories in language that is easy for kids to understand but that is fundamentally accurate. It doesn't interpret for them, merely simplifies.The entire Bible isn't represented in this storybook version, but it does contain the books and stories that will help them to build a strong foundation. The Table of Contents lists each included book, along with a title for each story presented from that book. It goes further to provide the biblical citation for the story.At the beginning of each book, there is a brief (1-2 sentences) introduction to the book. For example, in "Genesis," the word is defined and the explation is given that this book tells about "the beginning of God's people." The intro to Matthew explains that it is one of the Gospels and will tell stories about Jesus, showing how "Jesus' teaching compare to the instruction God gave in the Old Testament."The stories within each book are typically 2-4 pages long which is perfect for the 3-6 year-old audience this Bible Storybook is intended for. At the end of each story, there is a simple question for children to contemplate and discuss.

I help my mama with a 2 and 3 year old class at the congregation we worship with and we've been on the lookout for a good Bible summary book to keep their attention and change things up a bit.When I first saw this book, my hopes weren't too high, but this has turned out to be an excellent book to use with younger Bible classes. As I always suggest, make sure you read it straight from the Bible first(before class), so you can make sure you don't disagree with any of the summaries and change words or phrases accordingly. Each summary lets you know what book, chapter(s), and verse(s) the summary is from, so they make it easy to do so. It also suggests that you let the children know where in the Bible it is from before reading.There are suggested questions within the pages for the teachers, and this is super helpful for a Bible class. There's also plenty of tips to go along with the readings. There are even songs in the back of the book. While some of these are labeled as prayers that your children would sing, I wouldn't have my children sing their prayers, so we'd simply use them as songs. There's also a movement song, and I wouldn't think of having children jump and flap around while praying to God. I say that to say, tweak it to your needs and the needs of your children.The pictures are a bit ridiculous and on the odd side. Most of the women, no matter what age, look like they're about to have a baby any day. A few of the younger women look slim and trim. Most of the men are fit, with big, wide shoulders, but many of them have big bellies, too. ALL of the hands look weird. It just comes off like a cut and paste job.
