The high quality binding, strong covers and premium glossy paper make this a gift to be given with love, received with joy and treasured with delight. Each story – never more than about 100 lines of clearly readable text, is just the right length for bedtime or story-time sharing. And written by award winning English writer of children's books, Sally Lloyd-Jones, The Jesus Storybook Bible is as engaging for grown-ups as it is for children.

Children aged from 4 upwards will understand and love the stories shared with them by a grown up reader, and children from 6 upwards will be able to read the straightforward words and sentences for themselves. Even the youngest will be drawn in by the bright and bold pictures of award winning children's artist and native of Cornwall, Jago.

Starting with a simple paraphrase of Psalm 19: "The Heavens are singing about how great God is…" children – and grown ups, begin a colourful adventure in words and pictures through the stories of The Old Testament, to the birth of the baby at the centre of it all, and on through the parables, miracles and wonders of the New. Woven throughout, and connecting each and every story, is the softly whispered name of Jesus.

This is the children's Bible written and drawn first and foremost for the children, parents and teachers on this side of the Atlantic, The Jesus Storybook Bible will make a refreshing and reaffirming presence at the bedside of 4s to 10s making their first exploration into the wonderful stories and lessons that make up the Bible, and lead to Jesus.

Now a new Anglicised edition, the Jesus Storybook Bible tells the story beneath all the stories the Bible. It takes the whole Bible to tell this Story. At its centre there is a baby, the child upon whom everything would depend. From Noah to Moses to King David, every story whispers his name. Jesus is like the missing piece in a puzzle that makes all the others pieces fit together. Beautifully written and illustrated, The Jesus Storybook Bible invites children to discover for themselves that Jesus us at the centre of God’s great story of salvation – and at the centre of their story too.

“Introducing the Anglicised Edition of the increasingly popular Children’s Bible – The Jesus Storybook Bible. Every story whispers his name ... all 44, which beautifully tell the entire story of the Bible. Suitable for any age, this Bible would be great for bedtime reading and a book confident young readers will cherish.”

“This masterpiece begins with a story called ‘The Story and the Song’. It puts the Bible into context for children so that each story becomes an adventure. Every story whispers the name of a baby who’s is the missing piece in the puzzle. This introduction makes each story come to life, in creative and imaginative ways. ”

“The Jesus Storybook Bible is much more than a Children’s Bible. It’s an imaginative children’s translation that is theologically rich and utterly breath-taking, for both children and parents.”

The key to introducing children to a life long faith is the same as the key that opens the door to a lifelong love of reading. And the key is called sharing. Of course you can’t make children find faith just as you can’t make them read something they don’t want too – well, not and expect them to love it.

But sharing a faith – showing how much it means to you, living it, spending time with it and spending time with your children opens a door and invites a child to enter and discover what you’ve already found. The same is true of reading. If you open the door, show the joys and adventures inside, children will be eager to enter and make new discoveries for themselves.

Some doors are easier to open than others. Sometimes it seems that the doors we’d most like to open to our to our children are the least accessible and most difficult to even unlock, let alone swing wide and set out the welcome mat. So when a book comes along that not only offers a wide open doorway to reading, but also an easy and attractive way in to sharing the wonders of faith, its time to get really excited about both.

The Jesus Storybook Bible – now with British (rather than US) English spellings and sentences, is just such a reason for anyone who cares about nurturing reading and faith in primary school age children to get excited. While children from about 6 and above will be able to read the short, thoughtfully laid out and easy to follow stories for themselves, even children as young as 4 will love to have the 44 Old and New Testament tales read to them at bedtime and story-time.

Rarely more than 100 lines (about 6-8 minutes) the stories of creation, Noah, Joseph, Moses, Daniel and all the best loved stories of Jesus sweep across breathtakingly bright and bold illustrations that reflect the beauty and wonder of the words themselves. The collective focus of the well known stories is centred on the person, life, works and meaning of the Bible’s central figure – the baby born in Bethlehem and raised in Nazareth who grew to be the friend and saviour of all children everywhere.

Quite literally at the centre, the birth of Jesus is story number 22 of the 44 collected into the strong, well made hard back covers. And it’s the quality of the words (by award winning British storywriter, Sally Lloyd-Jones), rich illustrations (by creative Cornish artist, Jago) matched with the excellence of the over all package that makes this edition a gift that any grown-up would love to give and any child delighted to receive.

Best of all, it’s not a book to stay on a child’s bookshelf. It’s a book children will give pride of place next best loved toys and treasures by their bedside; to be shared at bedtime and read with and for pleasure. It’s a book that points toward a fully grown-up Bible of their own, on the way to the faith you want them to know and love and last a lifetime. - Les Ellison

Written for children ages four and up, The Jesus Storybook Bible tells the one story underneath all the stories of the Bible and points to the birth of a child, the Rescuer, Jesus. Complete with 44 Bible stories, The Jesus Storybook Bible paints a beautiful portrait of Jesus and invites children to see that he is not only at the center of God's great story of redemption he is at the center of their story too.

Children and adults alike will be captivated by the beautifully written narrative and the original and unique illustrations by accomplished artist Jago. Lloyd-Jones' powerful gift of storytelling draws the reader into the greatest adventure of all time in an exciting page-turner that kids (and adults) find hard to put down.
