MY TIDBITS

With a robust cover—and a wonderful touch of glow-in-the-dark which is sure to draw many kids' attention—this is a small collection of Bible stories just right for younger readers, ages three and up.
It's robust enough to withstand smaller accidents and has a great size for younger hands. While the  illustrations invite kids to flip through on their own, the stories are written in more of a devotional form, offering a closing goodnight prayer and Bible verse at the end of each one.

The stories are short, only a few pages, and carry several lines of text below a bright illustration. The themes are broken evenly between the Old and New Testament, each one a very familiar story. Most stories chosen offer joyful endings, which are encouraging and inspirational. None of the tales goes into great detail but rather hits the key points in a language kids can easy understand. The collection ends with the resurrection of Jesus.

This is a lovely collection of the most familiar Bible stories placed at just the right level for young listeners. The prayer at the end of each story makes this a great read for the end of the day.

I received a complimentary copy from Booklook Bloggers.
