ISBN 1-56292-556-3 Hardback edition, 173 pages.
Ariel and Araya received this book for Christmas last year. We have now read through the book 3 times and they want to start over again. We read a story each night.
These are easy to understand Bible stories to help children walk in Jesus' steps.
35 stories in all. Each story is short and at the end asks questions to reinforce the reading. Each story also has a remember Bible verse, a what would you do question, a song or activity and a prayer.
I really do enjoy my nightly reading with the girls, and they enjoy it as well. I highly recommend this book for your own children or grandchildren, etc if you want them to understand and know the stories of the Bible more as youngsters.
Just some of the stories included are:
Jonah and the Whale
Daniel and the Lions Den
Joseph and Potiphar
Mary, Martha and Lazarus
The poor widow
The good samaritan
A boy and his lunch

- Marsh,
Thanks for visiting Snuggie Humor! Wedgies, I just updated it! Thought I would come over and see what's new in your Squidoo world. I love your WWJD for Kidz! It's a colorful page, and the content and topic is great, it will do well. 5*'s on the lens, and I will lens-roll it to Choose It! Christain... because it goes well together.
I would like to make a Banner for your lens as a Christmas present for you. You really do support me on Squidoo and I appreciate you very much for that. I will let you know where you can receive your gift under the tree when it's done. I stole the Christmas tree from Jaguar Julie (she has a gift there already).
Merry Christmas!
Susie
