Excellent family Bible for kids
The Bible has been marketed to kids in so many ways. While I won't comment on the vicious nature of Christian publishers endlessly marketing the Bible, suffice it to say that there is a plethora of choices. But are they choices when most of them either (a) do not have the text of the Bible (but summary stories), or (b) if they do, drastically reduce the text into a "bible storybook" format. What's worse is that these "Bibles" are full of interpretation, morals of the stories, and the like. These are catechism books under the moniker of the Bible. I looked for a long time for a Bible meant for families that would be interesting for kids of any age, and, especially, that had actual biblical text. While this illustrated family Bible is not a complete Bible, the dozens and dozens of stories--covering every section of every book of the Bible--are full page spreads consisting *only* of Bible text for the story (sometimes, a paragraph in italics summarizes narrative sections that are cut out). Flanking the text are informative margins that DK readers will recognize, and the illustrations on every page engage our three year old as much as our six year old, as much as mom and dad! This really is the best illustrated Bible for a family with kids. Skip Crossway, Zondervan, or whatever big Christian publisher is marketing a family Bible to you (that you apparently must have, over the one they released last year). Sure, they have a lot of money behind them, but what you want is the Bible, right? Not the endless summaries with flashy art by some celebrity pastor or "scholar" who can never seem to let the text be. Pick up the this DK one.
