A perfect introduction to the Bible and the act of prayer for young children.

Thirteen specially selected stories from both the Old and New Testaments are retold through lively narrative that preserves all the mystery and wonder of the Bible, and beautiful, detailed illustrations bring the Bible characters and events to life. From "God Makes the World" to "The First Easter," the stories are perfect for reading aloud together.

The prayers have been selected to suit childhood experiences and all occasions, combining traditional prayers and psalms, specially written prayers, and informal prayers composed by children themselves. From "Prayers about my feelings" to "Prayers about the world," the whole family can enjoy and share in these special moments.

Two beautifully illustrated books combined in one slipcase, A First Bible Story Book and a First Book of Prayers makes the perfect gift for a child's christening, communion, or other special occasion, and is surely something they will treasure.
