Buck Denver asks What's in the Bible? book series for children

FaithWords is announcing a new children’s book imprint by the creator of VeggieTales called JellyTelly Press! This new line teaches children about the Bible in a fun and unique way. They will be publishing coloring books for preschoolers, picture books, activity books and chapter books for elementary schoolers, as well as Bibles and books for family devotionals.

The first books to come out this January are a line of board books and coloring books:

Truly, a wonderful new series for young children to help them understand Genesis 1:1 - 31. It is told in a way that would be easy for young children to relate to what is being explained. The last page of each book has a parent connection where there are ideas for parents to utilize to further engage the child and teach the concepts being explained in the book. For example in the God Made World book one of the connection points is to "take the book on a walk! Go outside and show your child God's creation. Point out shapes in the clouds, different animals and the sun or moon. Think about some fun ways you can care for God's creation together." What a great idea! These are durable board books but I do believe the concepts are good for children ages 3 to 6 or 7 years old. The books all have wonderfully attractive colors and images that would be inviting to a child. 

To go along with the books are two coloring books. These include a short easy to comprehend explanation of a chapter in the bible along with a picture to color depicting what is being talked about. Some of the pictures are more intricate and could be used for slightly older children. I think these would be great tools for Sunday School teachers to utilize. There is one covering the New Testament and one the Old Testament. Each coloring book has 60 pages in it. 

I think this is a fantastic series and highly recommend purchasing all of them. I love how they tell the story of creation. More importantly I like that they are biblically accurate and that they let the child know God loves him or her. The very last page in each book says "You are so loved by God". Not just loved but so loved. How awesome is that! And what a great message to tell a child daily. 

Always thankful for the opportunity to review a book. The books in this series were sent to me for review by the publisher.
