I can't recommend this book.
This book came to us as part of a Reformed homeschooling curriculum. My son was terribly pleased as there are pictures in this book. I was not so pleased as I found that I had to edit the stories early on. Also, the translation of the story of Esther is so questionable that the homeschool recommends we not read it to the children. I have dropped the book from our daily study and fortunately, so far, my son has not noticed. If you are looking for a Reformed children's bible try The Child's Story Bible by Catherine Vos. We have used that as part of our family worship time for several years and have not found any problem's theologically.

BETTER TITLES ARE AVAILABLE
As a chidren's story Bible, this book has two strong points in its favour:

1. The pictures are respectful and faithful to the Bible. For example, care has been taken to ensure that there are no pictures of Christ's face, since this would portray an illustrator's imagination rather than Biblical truth.

2. The stories are faithful to the Biblical text, and do not contain exegetical errors or man centered theology.

However, these advantages are outweighed by a very large disadvantage: The story telling is very poor and dull. The way the stories are told is distinctly dull, and does not interest children. Our children lost interest as a result, and we were compelled to begin using a different children's Bible.

Recommended instead: The Children's Story Bible by Anne DeVries.
