1: Bible in Pictures for Little Eyes
This is an excellent Bible story book for young children. Our own children especially loved the questions at the end of each story--often wanting to read story after story in one sitting. It was originally given to us by our church nursery department when our daughter was about a year old. We have since given copies to friends at the birth of their children. Now we are having grandchildren and I still give it to young parents who tell me their children love hearing the stories and answering the questions which help them remember important points about God and the world and themselves. Try out a copy with a young child you know.

2: The Bible in Pictures for Little Eyes
I purchased this delightful and colorful book for my newest grandson. I will read the stories to him as soon as he can understand. I want him to know that the Bible is the greatest story ever told.

3: Older is Better
I love this book and always give it as a baby gift to new parents. But I sorely miss the older version with the beautiful mural style paintings as illustrations. The newer "cartoony" pictures don't do justice to the text.

4: very interactive...
My son and I read this as a part of homeschooling. The thing I like most about it, is that it has questions throughout the story. This is most helpful in making sure my son understands the story we are talking about. The stories are not even 5 minutes long, so his attention is never lost.

5: Great...if you want your kids obsessed with death
If I had a dime for every time words like "die" "kill" "dead", etc. appear in this, I'd have a hefty chunk of change. Little toddlers don't understand death, and to hear about it repeatedly here is shameful. For instance, when David brought the ark into Jersulaem, rather than focusing on David's love for God, the "brilliant" author informs us that if anyone looks in the ark, they'd die. Does a toddler need to know that detail?
Also, some of the grammar is just embarrassing: Pharoah "has very much money" etc. Oh, and the word "bad"? It's in there about a million times, too.
After reading this Bible to my two small children daily for a couple of years, I couldn't take it any more, and we bought a new one. Talk about "bad." Skip This version!!!
