Harvest House Publishers My Very Own Bible

Toddlers and preschoolers will feel all grown up carrying their own "Bible" to church! Each of these beloved stories--20 each from the Old and New Testaments--use only about 100 words, with easy-to-understand language that accurately conveys the longer narratives. Along with full-page colorful illustrations, children will be captivated while learning stories from God's Word. This small Bible storybook is the perfect gift for parents, grandparents, and others who want to share the greatest stories of the Bible with little ones to give at baby dedications, showers, Easter baskets, Christmas stockings, and birthdays. Measures 4" x 5.75", and has 96 pages. Recommended for ages 3 to 5.

It is too old for toddlers...perhaps for 4 or 5 year olds it's okay. Very small..though you do mention the dimensions it just looked bigger.

Went beyond my expectations. It is perfect for very young children. Gave these to family with 5 children and the mom and dad were thrilled. They said they are very easy to understand and the children felt very special since now the had their own unique bibles. Great product.

I was surprised by the size of this book. It was very small. It is a good size for a toddler/preschooler.

This is a gift for a child scheduled for a dedication service. It's an okay item to get a young child on the path of knowing God, our Savior and the Holy Spirit.

Among the myriad of children's Bibles now available is My Very Own Bible by Betty Fletcher.Here at Christian Children's Book Review, we see a great many children's Bibles. What sets this Bible apart is its small-hands size (about 5.9 x 4.1 inches) and the fact that it introduces young children not only to widely-told Bible stories (like Noah's Ark and David and Goliath) but also stories that are less often told in Bibles for little ones.Some of the lesser-told Bible stories include: Moses parting the Red Sea, Gideon and his army, Elisha and the poor woman, Naaman, Queen Esther, the fiery furnace, John the Baptist, Bartimaeus, the poor woman who gave pennies, doubting Thomas, Paul and Silas in jail, and a succinct telling of what Heaven will be like (from the book of Revelation). Each Bible story is told in a two page spread, with the text on one side of the page and a colorful illustration by Lou Police on the opposite side.What I Like: Small children love books that are diminutive, and while this Bible doesn't offer much detail for each story, it is a great introduction to many stories in the Bible, as well as to basic concepts like who Jesus is.What I Dislike: If you're looking for much in the way of details, this is not the Bible for your child.Overall Rating: Good.
