Bible Stories for Little Angels

This padded book features 10 Old and New Testament stories retold in gentle, kid-friendly language and paired with soft, chalky illustrations. After Noah and the animals safely step out of the ark onto land, God paints a rainbow and says, "I promise I will never make another flood like that," and the story of Jesus' death focuses on his resurrection, not the crucifixion. "I am going back to heaven soon. I will be alive forever, and one day I will come back and take you there to live with me. Now anyone can be friends with God!" A mild and cozy introduction to some of the Bible's most familiar stories. Ages 3–5. (Jan.)
