New Catholic Picture Bible Catholic Book Publishing Corp. Hardcover – Picture Book, January 1, 1955

The 5 star rating comes from the fact that this was the very same Bible that I used to read as a child growing up. Many stories of the Bible were learned from this edition and I purchased one to give to my nieces. I remember myself as an 8 year old boy reading it and being fascinated by the stories. If you can get an 8 year old boy to be interested in Biblical stories when there is the option of watching cable tv, you have done something correct.

Love it ❤️

We use this picture bible every day! Love that the stories are short and keep my son’s attention. The pictures are beautiful as well!The book is made well too

I like that it has short readable, enjoyable Bible stories that present the story in a way a child can be introduced and enjoy. The pictures are nice. I’ve bought several children’s Bibles and this is by far my favorite based on the way it is written—respectful to the Word, and focused on the Redeemer.

The Greatest Story Ever Told in pictures with short summaries of Bible stories. Beautifully illustrated for young children to discuss and talk about each story. A picture says a thousand words and this Bible is sure to be a great success!

Gave to grandson and his father called that one night he found the grandson reading the book under the covers using a flashlight after lights-out time. Okay, what do you say when a kid likes a bible so much that he cannot sleep without reading the bible more? Our kids liked the one we got years ago and this book has maintained its ability to enthrall kids.

I purchased this bible for my 7year old son as a Christmas present. We read this frequently as a bedtime story. Each story is only one page and there is a picture to go along with each one. I like the simplicity of the wording and my son enjoys hearing the stories as he learns about our faith. I'm even learning more as I read to him!One of the main reasons I purchased this particular Bible was that another reviewer had mentioned that it was like the one she owned as a child in the 70s. This really hit home for me as I wanted my son to receive the same type of religious experience as I did as a child.The clincher for me is that my son requests me to read to him from this Bible. He frequently looks through at the pictures and stories in the book himself. He even asks questions about the people in the story. This tells me that this Bible is really catching his attention. That we can have a talk about people and events from the Bible is awesome.

Wonderful children's bible. Language is simple and easily understandable. It has large easy-to-read type and beautiful artwork.Title provides very brief summaries and valuable context for 117 important stories from the Bible, 43 stories from the Old Testament and 74 stories from the New Testament.It also has the Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur.
