Seven first Bible storybooks for a Christian family, gathered so you can pick the right one for your child. There's no need to own all seven; any single one is a good first Bible storybook, and the right choice comes down to your child's age and the style you want. A board-simple story-a-page bible for a toddler, a lovely connected read-aloud for the preschool and early-school years, a whole-Bible telling for a curious five-to-ten-year-old, or a full comic-book Bible for the older child who thinks Bibles are for little ones. Read the one you choose whenever it fits.
This is a shelf of first Bible storybooks; pick by age and style. For a toddler who's only just ready to sit for a story, The Beginner's Bible gives you ninety short stories in bright cartoon pictures, or Read-Aloud Bible Stories does the opposite and tells just a few, very slowly, with the repetition little ones love. For the preschool and early-school years, The Jesus Storybook Bible reads like one beautiful connected story and is the one parents fall for as hard as their children do, while The Big Picture Story Bible teaches the whole arc of Scripture in simple, repeating refrains. Want the shelf's warmest single picture-book story, one that celebrates a family of every color and kind? God's Very Good Idea. Ready for a fuller, funnier, whole-Bible adventure for a five-to-ten-year-old? The Biggest Story. And for the older child who's decided Bibles are babyish, The Action Bible tells it all as a full comic. What ties them together is that each one is a trustworthy first Bible for a Christian home, and any single one earns its place on its own.
