The Jesus Storybook Bible Deluxe Collection Book Review



Sally Lloyd-Jones’ Treasured Jesus Storybook Bible is Now Available in a Collector’s Edition for all Ages!



This edition of the Jesus Storybook Bible includes the Jesus Storybook Bible with 44 stories and stunning illustrations.  There are 3 audio CD's with David Suchet reading the stories with his brilliant accent and heartfelt expression.  There is a DVD with 3 hours of animated story and a beautiful leather bound book of the Jesus Storybook Bible.  This is a precious collection that will be a treasure for your family for now and years to come.  Each story illustrates the need for a rescuer and continues to point to Jesus through the entire book.  Kids will be enthralled with the Bible, the audio storytelling and the video.  I think this is an excellent way for young children to see the how God's story from start points to Jesus.  This is a perfect gift set for a child who will hunger after Jesus and where "Every story whispers his name."
