The Jesus Storybook Bible: Every Story Whispers His Name

This is a thoughtful, respectful, intelligent book that you can share with ANYONE who has a remotely open mind.
The only reason it gets four stars is that I was looking for something a bit more dense and challenging, but now that I think about it, how many people out there are geeks like me? Not many.
This book is extremely engaging, using questions posed by REAL people and providing REAL answers with great insight. So, for what it lacks in philosophical depth (okay, you can read the stuff in the references if you must) it makes up for in accessibility to (almost) any reader.
CAVEAT: This book is not for stupid or closed-minded individuals, whether they be Christian or Atheistic in their faith walk. But if you can't grasp the reasoning, you probably weren't pondering the questions in the first place.
This book does not give you pat answers or smug circular reasoning. It does acknowledge the validity of some anti-Theist arguments and then gently and thoughtfully dissects them. Atheists, skeptics, agnostics, and thoughtful Christians alike will appreciate the fact that they are not being taken for a ride.
The first half of the book examines arguments against Christianity, and agrees where agreement is appropriate. There is no whitewash, only reason and good arguments.
The second half of the book gives reasons that support Christianity. It is very helpful, but not arrogant or over-the-top.
You can purchase this book for any friend without embarrassment.

I bought this book as a birthday present for my 6 year son. We read it everynight and he seems to really enjoy it. It inspires lots of questions from him.

This is a wonderful Bible storybook for kids. It literally does bring you back to Jesus in every story. I read it to my great-nephews whenever they are over. They love to look at the pictures and pick out a story and when we get to the end they now know that whatever story it is it will bring us back to Jesus. We are able to talk about Him and how much He loves them. I recommend it for all. I purchased two for our church preschool department.

My daughter received this book as a gift. She is 5 years old and after reading her the first story, she wants one every morning before school and every night before bed. It has wonderful bible stories that are told in a way that fun and easy for kids to understand. The illustrations are very colorful.

We were looking for a Bible for our five year old daughter. She had outgrown the Rhyme Bibles and other baby-ish Bibles, but she wasn't ready for the full-blown NIV or NLT. This Bible fills an important niche in between.

The text is not transliterated but paraphrased. Very well written. Grace-centered. Christ-centered. And it gives young and old alike the central message of the Bible.
