Bibles for Children and Youth
If you are looking for a Bible for your child or as a confirmation present, we recommend the following:
Toddlers: My Very First Bible by Lois Rocks
Children: The Lion First Bible
Youth: Good News Bible: The Youth Edition by Bible Society Resources
For something a bit different - Bible Infographics for Kids 1 & 2 by Harvest House Publishers, explain the bible in a bright colourful way that appeal to children (suitable for 7 to 12 year olds). Did you know? The ark was big enough to hold 55,000 species of animals. Roughly 3-4 million left Egypt during the Exodus. Imagine the entire city of Los Angeles leaving town and wandering in the desert for 40 years! The phrase "a leopard can't change its spots" comes from Jeremiah 13:23 .
