The most significant stories from the Old and New Testaments to the book of Acts are retold in a clear, simple, and engaging way. The language, pictures, and style will all resonate in the mind of a child.

The stories can be read a by themselves, but when linked together they form a beautiful narrative about the 'one story' of God and his people contained in the whole Bible.

The Lion Children's Bible is also available in a gift edition and in paperback. Translated into 38 languages, this is the top children's Bible for both home and school.

Pat Alexander is a former editorial director of Lion Publishing and compiler and author of many books ranging from the best-selling Lion Handbook to the Bible to The Lion First Bible. She lives in Oxford.
