My thoughts:
I am not very familiar with the What's in the Bible? series. I have seen it but don't know a lot about it.
I think it is great there is a series for younger children. These are board books, but I'd think they would be appropriate for those aged 4-6. Some young readers may like to try to read them with a little help. In God Made the Animals, I liked the variety of animals shown and the answer that yes God made all of them.
At the end of these board books is a section with some ideas for "further connection." This has some good ideas of questions to ask while reading. I like that it ends with "You are so loved by God." What a great reminder for children and adults!
The coloring book has nice pictures for coloring. They will be great additions to sharing Bible stories of the New Testament with young children. A brief description of the stories is given as well as the biblical reference. Some of the stories included are: Mary and Joseph traveling to Bethlehem, the birth of Jesus, Jesus' baptism, and Jesus praying in the garden.
I really that the beginning starts with a page of the New Testament books of the Bible.
I also like the pages with just words of verses to color.
I received copies of these books from Hachette Book Group. Thank you.
Have a day of blessings!
