Editorial Reviews

"The Storyteller’s Bible brings the key stories of Scripture’s redemptive timeline to life in a way that children can easily understand. Kathryn Butler weaves Gospel connections throughout, helping young readers grasp how the gospel flows seamlessly from Genesis to Revelation. This beautifully illustrated children’s Bible by over thirty artists is a must-have addition to your family bookshelf!"
Marty Machowski, Family Pastor and Author of The Ology, The Redemption Tales series, and other gospel-rich resources for church and home

"The diverse illustrations (by 32 different artists!) make The Storyteller's Bible unique in its genre. As a kid, I drew on whatever paper I could put my hands on. If I'd picked up this book, I would've flipped the pages back and forth, gazing at and trying to copy the many different artistic styles. If I'd done so, I would've encountered not only a beautifully illustrated storybook Bible but one written by master storyteller Kathryn Butler, who has filled each story with interactive questions that will keep kids engaged and who, in every story, carefully points children to the more profound beauty revealed in the biblical gospel of Jesus Christ."
Jared Kennedy, managing editor for books and curriculum at The Gospel Coalition, co-founder of Gospel-Centered Family, and author of books like The Beginner's Gospel Story Bible, Keeping Your Children's Ministry on Mission, and The Story of Martin Luther

“An outstanding Bible storybook, theologically sound and physically attractive, good for several readings.”
