This quaint, attractive volume allows readers to take an active role in learning about the Bible as they associate symbols with words that complete well-known Biblical passages. Stories from both the Old and New Testaments are brought to life in a series of rebuses that make a superb, easy-to-absorb introduction for children to the teachings of the Good Book.

Beautifully ornamented pages illustrate God's creation of the Earth; the flood, Noah's Ark, and the rainbow of promise; Joseph and his coat of many colors; David's battle against Goliath; Daniel in the lions' den; and the birth of Jesus, his teachings, and the work of his disciples. Also presented in this unique format are best-known and -loved proverbs, parables and psalms.

Children and adults as well-will enjoy puzzling over the meanings of the symbols before them, and their enjoyment will stimulate interest in continued study of the Scriptures, as well as lead to better retention of the material at hand. The Bible Through Pictures also contains short quizzes that test the young reader's deeper understanding of the lessons learned through the decoding of the passages presented.

This striking visual presentation of Old and New Testament stories makes The Bible Through Pictures a unique and accessible text for all ages.
