The Child's Story Bible

Rating:
Summary: Lifetime of writing her book
Review: Mrs. Vos's daughter gives her mother a most beautiful compliment in writing of her mother's passion: creating a Biblically accurate children's story Bible. She observes, that, as a child, she took almost no notice of her mother's personally-committed habit of ascending the steps of their home to an upstairs area where she could research and write... what has become one of the best Bible story books written.

Our family used it as a three year Bible course. We learned so much from her added notes which weaves the stories to the time line of Israelite history. Catherine F. Vos' chronologically written stories gave a point of reference from which our son could create a timeline of pictures and Bible references.

Summary: Keeps children interested, chronological, accurate
Review: My children love this Bible. The stories come alive and they are easily understandable. The stories are biblically accurate and center around Christ, even in the Old Testament stories. I highly recommend this Bible for giving your kids a well-rounded knowledge of the Bible.

Summary: For yourself and your kids!
Review: My husband was given this story Bible back in 1961 when he was baptised as an infant. We are still reading it to our 4 children today. It has been glued and reglued, taped, etc. to hold together this beautiful text. I was ecstatic to discover it's been recently republished. I have encouraged many parents to purchase it as it is an excellent, easy to read Bible for the whole family! Parents themselves don't often model personal devotions because so much of the Bible is difficult to understand. Read this every night and I guarantee you'll understand your own Bible much better, and have the best basic biblical overview possible! Vos doesn't water down the Bible stories - even some of the gory details - but in a respectful, careful manner she presents nearly every bible story. We LOVE this book!

Summary: Simply the best story Bible available for children and adult
Review: My wife and I argue over who get's to read this to our kids. It is that good. I would recommend this Bible to anyone who wants a clear, plain language understanding of the Bible. It is great for new Christians or people who have questions about the Bible but are intimidated to read it. It will motivate your kids to ask questions and motivate you to read the Bible. You will not wrong with this one! Enjoy!
