This book is terrific. The gentle internal rhymes and the colourful illustrations combine to make a book that parents will love reading and children will love hearing.

Content
Bible storytime is a special time, when children are settled and pages are turned. My Storytime Bible is ideal for bedtime reading, inviting children to enjoy favourite stories and reflect on what they learn.
The creative storytelling in this very special Bible invites children to reflect on favourite stories and apply what they learn to their own lives. Stories include 33 from the Old Testament and 35 from the New Testament, from the beginning of creation through to the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.
Age range: 6-10.

Reviews
From The Church Times Books for Christmas - November 2011
Sally Fraser, aunt, writes:
This book is a joy to read to young children. It is written by the celebrated storytelling Renita Boyle, and the internal rhythm and rhyme within her stories make the biblical tales come to life. Moses had to be patient with God's exiled people when all they seemed to do was 'mumble, mump and moan'. The story ends by saying that God is patient with us, too, even when we 'grumble, grump and groan'. Goliath is described by David as the 'mightiest frightiest giant' and an impatient Noah, waiting for the land to dry, says 'Ho, hum, sight'. A perfect book to read at bedtime, and an absolute must for teachers.

I like the story of Jonah and I laughed when the big fish burped.
