“Chau’s beautiful, flowing illustrations bring to life the story of the Bible told in Ling’s short rhymes. . . . Readers receive an abridged version of the stories of the Bible that, with the art, still adequately convey the enormity and reach of the visions set forth in that literature. . . . This unique and accessible volume deserves a place in religious sections or collections with a demonstrated demand for Biblical stories.”—School Library Journal “As a pediatrician and father of eight, I have never seen the need for God more than in the lives of growing children.
