The Redemption Tales series by best-selling children’s author Marty Machowski offers a creative presentation of the gospel message by inviting middle-grade readers (ages 8–12) to join the fictional animals who could have witnessed the biggest events of the Bible throughout the Old and New Testaments.

Each book in this four-volume set includes seven stories for a total of twenty-eight retellings from Genesis to Revelation. This set includes The Shadow and the Promise (Book 1), The Prophecy and the Hope (Book 2), The Light and the Life (Book 3), and The Death and the Victory (Book 4).

Each chapter includes Bible study questions that help kids engage with the “truth behind the tales,” while offering a fresh perspective on God’s overarching story of redemption throughout Scripture. Accompanied by illustrations from Blair Files, the series invites readers to see familiar biblical events in a new and imaginative way.
