This breathtakingly beautiful book will be read by children for years to come. The stories are simply and gently told but retain all the poetry and power of the Bible. They have been carefully chosen for the images they evoke, the symbols they represent, and the mystery they contain. The illustrations, by world-famous artist Ulises Wensel, capture scenes from the Bible with wonder, humor, and affection. This is the most strikingly visual and readable childrens Bible ever produced. Includes glossary of names, places, and difficult Bible terms.
