    I think this book is excellent. It is beautifully illustrated. My daughter has had this since she was 3. I love how this author presents the text. She gives just enough thought to make the text meaningful, but not so much that a 3-year old would be confused. As a parent I really like the handling of the tougher topics, such as the crucufixion. She approaches it with real tenderness. I feel that the author does not make the text too petty, rather bringing out the love and sacrifice in the story while keeping the actual text simple. Very gifted author and illustrator!

    We use this sweet little Bible as a baby gift to new babies at church. The families love them and they are ones that the children can use for years to come...until they get their full Bible in the first grade.

    At first glance it might not come off as appealing right away, but I gave it a chance and I found this book is good enough. Simple words and simple tellings, well said compared to the other "toddler" bibles. I agree with the recommended age that even a year-old child would pay attention. I love the feel of cover in my hands, the smooth and glossy pages and the simplicity of illustrations, and if you hate the cartoonish whimsical drawings then this could satisfy you. The size is just perfect for the palm esp. when reading for a squirmy toddler, and I like that it's a little padded.

    My only problem is that it's much too expensive for the overall book. The illustrations and colors are much too simple for the price.

    The Bible In Pictures For Toddlers contains 70 Bible stories (36 from the Old Testament) and is designed for children ages 1-4. Award-winning author Ella K. Lindvall certainly has the credentials to write such a book. She is a mother, has taught kindergarten and first grade, and has written other Bibles for children. There are many positives to the 144-page book. They include...

    -It's a small book that a toddler can hold.

    -It has a slightly padded cover.

    -A foreword and table of contents are included.

    -The colorful pictures are very kid-friendly and found on every page. Almost everyone is happy - even the monkeys during the flood.

    -The stories and their titles are short and use simple words (e.g., God Makes People, Ruth is Kind).

    -Every story has Bible references.

    -Many of the stories ask questions (e.g., Do you share?, Where is the lady?).

    -Difficult topics are gently addressed (e.g., sacrificing animals, disobedience, the destruction of a city, war, Satan).

    -It shows the birth, life, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus.

    There are several aspects of the book that some people may not like such as...

    -Only on one page do we see people of different ethnicities. Apparently, Adam and Eve, Egyptians, angels, the children the Son of Man loves and the people He feeds are all white. I really do love white people (I'm married to one, and I'm half white); however, updated illustrations would make this book much better.

    -The author states that God no longer talks out loud to people.

    -Only three magi are shown.

    -John the Baptist is pouring water on Jesus' head during His baptism.

    -Jesus turns water into juice and not wine. Because I'm a little boy I'll take juice over wine any day, but let's not change what the Bible says.

    -The book ends with Acts 16:25-31. What about Romans to Revelation?

    -There is no mention of Hell.

    Despite what I've mentioned above, I have absolutely no problemo reading this book to my Chinese son. I believe The Bible In Pictures For Toddlers will bless us tremendously, and any theological differences or literary criticisms I have can be addressed as we discuss the contents of the book.

    to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen. Romans 16:27
