Overview

A gorgeously illustrated presentation of Bible stories, told by the children in the stories

An elegantly illustrated collection of favourite Bible stories with an interesting twist. Margaret McAllister imaginatively retells these tales from the point of view of the children involved. Alida Massari's illustration style, inspired by ancient art and architecture and full of grace and sophistication, is perfectly suited to the book. A beautiful and informative title.

Reviews

"McAllister uses easy, engaging language. . . . Massari's solidly drawn art has an earthy beauty that complements the women's tales. This is a unique and useful offering for religion shelves." â€â€Booklist on Women of the Bible
