In my favorite prayer corner, I am blessed to have our well-loved and worn children's picture Bible from my childhood. This treasured family heirloom is a vital reminder of the faith traditions my parents gifted to me. I'm delighted by The Story of All Stories: A Story Bible for Young Catholics for its engaging and edifying way of inviting families to know and cherish the greatest stories ever told. Emily Stimpson Chapman and Diana Renzina have combined their gifts and talents to create a beautiful Bible that will enkindle God's love in the heart of everyone who reads it. Phenomenal! --Lisa M. Hendey Our youth are the most impressionable members of society and with so many voices coming their way, a discerning heart is more important than ever. The saving message of Jesus Christ heard through the Church and Sacred Scriptures provide them with the necessary formation to properly discern between all the voices they hear. The Story of all Stories breaks down barriers that often prevent youth from accessing that saving message. The dynamic narrative style and vivid imagery of this text allows them to truly experience the Word of God and fosters a true encounter with the Lord. Highly recommended. --Fr. Stephen Gadberry Reading illustrated story bibles as a family profoundly shaped my faith life in my childhood. I highly recommend this lavishly-illustrated, sensitively retold introduction to salvation history that will help form the imagination of the Church's next generation around what is beautiful, good, and true! --Dr. John Bergsma The illustrations alone make this book worth getting--stunning, reverent, full of wonder. But paired with a Christ-centered telling of the Bible as one unified story of God's love? It's the kind of book that will help a lot of young people--and older folks--see, maybe for the first time, the Bible's beautiful, cohesive narrative. --Matt Fradd The Bible, for Christians, is more than a collection of venerable texts; it is a world we inhabit, a cosmos we explore, as riveting as that of the galaxies. Each part must be seen in the light of the whole to reveal its sense. The ancient churches of Christendom made this clear by ordering and juxtaposing Biblical scenes on murals or in glass. Standing within such spaces we see the Bible story as ours, ourselves as part of the story. This wonderful book manages something similar. It is like a portable cathedral. Lovely, telling images and carefully selected texts join in intelligent symphony. I cannot think of a better introduction to the Biblical universe. --Bishop Erik Varden This is the Children's Bible I've been looking for, hoping to find, and at long last have to read with my kids. These stories from Scripture, that we all know so well, are presented in the most engaging and visually stunning way that I found even the most familiar parts of the Bible coming to life for me in a new way. This is a storybook Bible for kids that I have found myself using on my own, because it contains what I too need to love the Lord even more: a beautiful presentation of God's Word. --Katie Prejean McGrady
