100 Bible Stories, 100 Bible Songs by Stephen Elkins (Illustrated by Tim O'Connor)

It has been said that the Bible is so deep that the world's greatest theologians are puzzled, yet so simple that even a child can understand it.  "100 Bible Stories, 100 Bible Songs" for children proves it.  This is a fantastic resource for parents, providing a solid yet simple story base with complementary choruses to aid learning both scripture and the reference.  I'd say that this book is suitable for age 2 - 7.

The pictures are beautifully yet simply illustrated by Tim O'Connor which helps in the telling of the story.  This is definitely a book that will be treasured for years to come.  The songs on the accompanying cd's are simple, yet lively.  They are perfect for reading with the book or even to listen to during the day.  The book is divided into the Old and New Testament and each story has the accompanying scripture tagged on.  I have found this useful for my own time with God. 

I love that my son, who is only 2 years old, is already trying to sing with the cd's.  He is being trained up in the way he should go with this fabulous book.
