Book Review - Read and Share Toddler Bible

Being a dad of three and with all of my children under the age of six I was pleased to review The Read and Share Toddler Bible published by Tommy Nelson. The book presented well with engaging illustrations and short stories. Each story is about 4-5 pages, written in simple and clear language.

The Read and Share Toddler Bible is illustrated with bright, clear and engaging drawings. These will capture the attention of any toddler and provide some good points for discussion aside from the text. Another unique feature about this book are the ‘parent tips’ at the end of each story. These provide the adult with additional information or an activity for follow up; something that is missing from many other young Bibles.

The book covers 40 stories but also comes with an hour long DVD. The animated feature is a beautiful addition to the book. Divided into 14 mini-stories they cover some highlights of the stories in the book. Each episode is about 3 minutes long and is able to be accessed with ease through the DVD menu or by simply fast forwarding.

While aimed obviously at a toddler age group, my daughter (who is six) has been able to sit down, and even with her beginning reading skills, decipher the stories and read it on her own. The Read and Share Toddler Bible is a highly recommended book for parents and their young children and is available at Amazon  and local Christian bookstores.
