The Jesus Storybook Bible

$24.99

The Jesus Storybook Bible is the one to give when the recipient is too young to read a Bible but old enough to be read to. It retells the major stories in plain, warm language and connects each one to Jesus, which is what sets it apart from a generic collection of Bible tales.

Who it suits

A strong gift for a baptism, a first communion, or any young child in a Christian family, especially when a parent or godparent will read it aloud. It crosses traditions easily, since it stays with the shared story rather than any one tradition’s distinctives.

The one thing to know: it is a retelling, not a translation. It simplifies and interprets to make the stories land for a child, so it complements rather than replaces a full Bible as the child grows into independent reading.

Where to buy

Frequently asked questions

What age is it for?

Roughly three to eight. It works as a read-aloud for toddlers and preschoolers and as early independent reading for older children. The art and tone carry well across that range.
