The high quality binding, strong covers and premium glossy paper make this a gift to be given with love, received with joy and treasured with delight. Each story – never more than about 100 lines of clearly readable text, is just the right length for bedtime or story-time sharing. And written by award winning English writer of children's books, Sally Lloyd-Jones, The Jesus Storybook Bible is as engaging for grown-ups as it is for children.

Children aged from 4 upwards will understand and love the stories shared with them by a grown up reader, and children from 6 upwards will be able to read the straightforward words and sentences for themselves. Even the youngest will be drawn in by the bright and bold pictures of award winning children's artist and native of Cornwall, Jago.

Starting with a simple paraphrase of Psalm 19: "The Heavens are singing about how great God is…" children – and grown ups, begin a colourful adventure in words and pictures through the stories of The Old Testament, to the birth of the baby at the centre of it all, and on through the parables, miracles and wonders of the New. Woven throughout, and connecting each and every story, is the softly whispered name of Jesus.

This is the children's Bible written and drawn first and foremost for the children, parents and teachers on this side of the Atlantic, The Jesus Storybook Bible will make a refreshing and reaffirming presence at the bedside of 4s to 8s making their first exploration into the wonderful stories and lessons that make up the Bible, and lead to Jesus.
