The Golden Children's Bible: A Full-Color Bible for Kids Hardcover – October 1, 1999

Love this children's Bible! The illustrations are so good and the story is basic enough for my child. The only downside is that the pages are a bit fragile and rip easily. My child and I accidentally put a few rips in 3-4 pages while reading together. We taped them up and all is good. We just have to be more gentle with this book than with others. Book did come from seller in excellent condition! I was very happy with it.

This is the gold standard of children's Bibles. The illustrations are reminiscent of old paintings without a hint of cartoonishness. They appeal to children and to the adults who read the stories to them. The language is rich. I grew up reading an earlier edition of this children's Bible given to my family by my aunt and uncle in the 1960s. So glad to find it still in print to give to my nephews' children!

Easy to read. Very basic.

I got this Bible for my grandson who got baptized when he was a little older. He loves it and reads it. It reminds me of my childhood Bibles in school. Great pictures and not too much information that can confuse a child. It looked so good after I received it, that I bought another one for any other grandchildren that might want or need it, God willing. Or, I'll just keep it for myself ;)

Perfect for kids of all ages!! Kjv

I cannot express how happy I am to have finally found this copy - but I will try. I, like many others, grew up with this copy of the Bible as children. Now that I have children of my own, a wave of nostalgia hit as I remembered pouring through these pictures for years. I searched and searched for a reasonably priced copy - going so far as to call local new and used bookshops in my area - to no avail.I thankfully found copies on Amazon - but boy they were expensive. I decided it was worth it so I put it on a wishlist to put off for another time. Lo and behold a week ago the "you might like this" had a copy for $14...rougly 80% less than what I had originally saved it for. New?!? I thought it was too good to be true - that this was going to be some cheap copy some nefarious printer had run off on a local copy machine - but it was $14 so what the hey right?Once I got it it was the copy I had remembered and wanted so badly for my young children. A very study backing and spine. All of the pictures faithfully reprinted. NOTHING is missing (except my own childhood sadface). My kids (age 3 and 5) are enjoying the pictures as much as I did - not to mention the words.No more namby pamby kid's bible that tell nothing of the true stories. This is the Bible - vengeful, petty God and all - as the book details in reality.

Beautiful Bible Stories ……..says children…..I say “anyone”!❤️

It's a true classic to be sure. The layout could stand to be updated. If you're looking for something similar, but newer, with actual Scripture from easier to read translations, compare Kregel's Treasury of Illustrated Bible Stories.
