Ever since I was young, I have always loved reading Bible stories. I can remember attending Sunday School and Vacation Bible School regularly and even getting awards for memorizing Bible verses. Now that I’m a mother, I would love to impart that same love for Bible stories and verses to my son.

Treasury of Bible Stories

When I was offered the opportunity to do a review of Treasury of Bible Stories, I immediately knew I wanted to do it. Just seeing the cover image of this book, it looked to me like this would be a nice book to add to our collection of kids’ books.

Plus, it would be nice to have a bigger (well, bigger than most of my son’s books) book that I can use for our bedtime stories.

Treasury of Bible Stories - Noah

About the book: Featuring lyrical stories that will make you laugh, this colorful collection is perfect for reading out loud. Magnificent Tales are rhyming Bible stories with clever art and clear lessons the whole family will enjoy. The stories and illustrations are so engaging that you won’t grow tired of reading a Magnificent Tale night after night! From “The Salty Tale of Noah’s Ark” to “The Lasting Story of the Last Supper,” the rhyming tales in this book remind us that God loves His people — in the Bible and today!

About the author: Kelly Pulley has illustrated dozens of books in The Beginner’s Bible series and has authored and illustrated several other children’s books, including Ten Unusual Features of Lulu McDunn and The Cycling Wangdoos.He enjoys spending time with his 4 grown children, and his beautiful wife, in the Nashville area.

What I like about Treasury of Bible Stories is that it uses rhymes to tell our favorite Bible stories. And if there’s one thing my son loves during storytime, it’s when the book uses words that rhyme.

I also really like the colorful illustrations. I’m personally a very visual learner and I love it when my books have vibrant colors. I think my son is the same — or maybe that was just my influence? Either way, we love looking at the illustrations in this book.
