I was looking for a bible to read to my kids that was on there level and this one is very nice. It has colorful pictures on every page, and all the stories are just one page which makes them short and sweet for short attention spans! However, it may not be a book that really young children (4 and under) can relate to. It is a solid reinforcement I think to Sunday school and getting your child to relate more to the stories in the bible.
Great read aloud bible for older children. Books and chapters are arranged chronologically. Very good children's bible to transition before the use of grown up version.
