Gumtree Gully

Kel Richards

An illustrated storybook for the little ones, that's more than just another bedtime story.

As the story unfolds, man's different responses to God are reflected by the animals' different responses to the ranger. So it introduces concepts such as God as our creator, obedience, rescue and grace.

What's more, at the end of each chapter there's a section titled 'What's inside this story?' which explores the meaning.

Packed with full colour illustrations throughout, Gumtree Gully is an ideal school scripture resource. It has a timeless message that we hope you'll read to your kids, and they'll read to theirs.

A Faith To Grow On

John MacArthur

"Now that you believe…" - this is the next step in a child's spiritual development after accepting Christ. John MacArthur helps kids understand basic elements of faith, such as: What should we do when we don't understand God? Is there a special way to pray? What if I tell someone about Jesus and nothing happens? As he did in I Believe in Jesus, MacArthur takes difficult-to-understand topics and presents them in a way kids can grasp. A Faith to Grow On presents foundational doctrines of the Christain faith in short devotional readings for young believers.

The Jesus Storybook Bible

Sally Lloyd-Jones
Illustrated by Jago

"The Jesus Storybook Bible" tells the story beneath all the stories in the Bible. At the center of the story is a baby, the child upon whom everything will depend. Every story whispers his name.

From the Old Testament through the New Testament, as the story unfolds, children will pick up the clues and piece together the puzzle. A Bible like no other, "The Jesus Storybook Bible" invites children to join in the greatest of all adventures, to discover for themselves that Jesus is at the center of God's great story of salvation - and at the center of their story too.

The Big Picture Story Bible

David Helm
Illustrated by Gail Schoonmaker

No child is too young to begin learning about the greatest love story of all-God's love for his people, as portrayed in the Bible. David R. Helm and Gail Schoonmaker collaborate to create a beautifully illustrated book of Bible stories especially for children, written with simplicity. Rather than simply retelling the most familiar short scenes from the Bible, this book presents the "big picture"-the unified story running through the Old and New Testaments. This delightful book will help children learn the Bible's whole story and begin to appreciate the fulfillment of God's promise to his people.

The Big Picture Bible Story Book is perfect for parents to read to their children, and eventually, for children to read on their own. It is an excellent way to introduce them to a book that will guide them through all of life.
