The Beginning Reader's BIBLE Thomas Nelson Publishers

It is with genuine excitement that I am reviewing the Complimentary book sent to me by Thomas Nelson Publishers.  The Beginning Reader's BIBLE Illustrated by Marijke ten Cate far exceeded my expectations.  This large hardback book not only has the most beautiful illustrations I have ever seen in a children's Bible, but it is filled with all the major Bible studies from Genesis to Revelations.  There are many features to the book like Do God's Word where they list an idea or craft to go along with the Bible story.  There is also a section after the story that says Pray God's Word with a memory verse that is a prayer and a section on some pages intitled Remember God' Word with a scripture to memorize.

The end of the book has a section called Resources to Guide Your Children that has The Ten Commandments, Twenty Third Psalm, Books of the Bible and many more resources.  There are aslo Charts to keep in the back to keep track of stories read and verses memorized.  The last page is the most important page as it has the Prayer of Salvation.

If you have a special young reader in your family this book is a must buy.

I Review Books

I created this blog so I could review books.  I owned bookstores for many years.  I had a Christian Bookstore and also a bookstore in the Lexington Center.  I have been a judge for the Gold Medallion Awards for Christian books.  I like all types of books including best sellers and inspirational books.  I hope this blog will help people read more and better books.
