The sturdy book will withstand even the toughest of little hands. The book wraps up nicely with "Jesus Lives" and the commandment to go and spread the Good News! The classic "loaves and fish", plus the story of his crucifixion and resurrection was next. I have a soft spot for Mark 4:39, so it was my utter delight to see the chapter "Jesus Calms the Sea". This parable told by Jesus is often overlooked, but one of the best stories for children to learn. One of the things I liked about this story is the inclusion of "The Lost Sheep". After Jonah, the young reader reads about Jesus' birth. Many of the Old Testament stories include Genesis' story of creation, Noah, Abraham, and Moses David, Daniel, and Jonah. Precious Moments Little Book of Bible Stories by Jean Fischer is the perfect board book to introduce a toddler up to a young reader to well known Bible stories. I was not required to write a positive review, and have not been compensated for this. This review was originally posted to A Simply Enchanted LifeĪ complimentary copy of this book was provided by BookLook Bloggers. This book will loved and cherished by toddlers, preschoolers and early readers. My daughter has enjoyed this book immensely and asks for me to read it to her at least once a day since we’ve gotten it. I don’t have to worry about my little one ripping pages as she admires the pictures and attempts to read the story. I appreciate that this book is appropriate for my (almost) four-year old but still in board book format. The scriptures used in this book are taken from the International Children’s Bible. At the end of the story are words of affirmation and another scripture to summarize. At the start of each story, the verse and chapter for that story are referenced. This is a collection of stories taken from the Old and New Testament of the Bible. In fact, the illustrations are some of the best you’ll find in any children’s storybook. There’s nothing cuter than illustrations in a Precious Moments book. I received a complimentary copy from Booklook Bloggers and enjoyed this enough to want to leave my honest thoughts. It's a lovely glimpse at several of the most known Bible stories and kept short enough to hold even more 'movement' friendly-listeners' attention until the end. The person reading the book aloud will have to decide for themselves, whether or not these holes need to be patched.Īll in all, it's a cute book, which meets all Precious Moments expectations. Obviously, one or two paragraphs isn't enough to bring across the tales in their entirety, and sometimes important aspects are left out. The stories are kept very children friendly. Otherwise, it's everything one can expect from Precious Moments. Only two characters broke away from this style, which my kids did notice right away. The illustrations are the main lure of this tiny book, letting the Precious Moments style come across on every page. It's short, sweet and aimed at listeners ages 3 and up. Next comes a 1-2 paragraph short version of the Bible story, followed by a two-lined rhymed prayer and a super short, one-lined verse out of the Bible, which directly relates to the tale. Each two-page spread begins with a simple title, which gives a quick glimpse at the theme, and then the book and chapters in the Bible where the story can be found. It's a tough book created for small hands and the writing is very much targeted for younger listeners. There are about sixteen familiar Bible stories bound in this 32-page board book. This is a tiny book which will make fans of Precious Moments hearts warm a little bit more.
