Great Bible for Young Readers

Customer Rating:
We have purchased this Bible for each of our kids when they reached an age when they could read well. We just gave the latest copy to our daughter in kindergarten as a reward when she reached a reading goal in school.

We love this Bible for the following reasons:
1. The NIrV is a great translation for our kids because it is accurate, readable (3rd grade reading level) and it is quite similar to the NIV - which is the version my wife and I use and the one our pastor preaches from
2. It is a real study Bible -- not a kid's abridged story Bible. Each book includes a brief introduction (who wrote the book, why was it written, what happens, etc.) and contains the full text of the Bible.
3. The text is easy to read and the look is inviting and interesting so that our kids read and look through it on their own (text is blue and red).
4. It includes questions and Biblical answers to a wide range of questions kids ask. For example, "What is a parable?" and "What is so bad about cheating in sports?"
5. It is a Bible that our kids will continue to grow with (at least, until teenagers, probably).
6. It is good for both boys and girls. We have found that a Bible cover is helpful to add that personal touch (e.g. camouflage for our son and pink for our daughter).

In summary, we love this Bible and think it is a great Bible to help your kids gain a passion for studying God's Word...

GREAT!!!

I didn't have any question that my daughter would love this book. She had a toddler Bible that she kind of outgrew. The questions that appear every couple pages in this one are ones she's even asked herself. Even adults who have trouble with the language in regular versions of The Bible will enjoy reading this with their children. I found my husband even thumbing through the pages to read the randomly placed questions... A wonderful purchase and worth every penny.

Best Gift Bible ever.

Customer Rating:
We decided to "gift" our 3rd graders with gift Bibles that were usable and would stand the test of time as they grew. This is by far the best! Our children cherish their bibles and are excited to use them in Sunday School and Bible Study.

Nice book for Kids. The illustrations are very good. The glossy paperback makes it last longer in handling by kids.

Exceptional Bible for children

Customer Rating:
Zondervan has always been known for its excellent products and this is no exception. What a wonderful Bible for kids ages 5-12, and even for adults! Written at a third garde reading level, this Bible is easy to understand and I enjoyed reading the answers to questions that kids (and yes, even adults) ask about God, heaven, and the world around them. The use of blue and red for the print is eye catching and easy on the eyes (and yes, much less boring too) The illustrations are cute and made me smile often. A dictionary and topical index is included. Parents and grandparents, no need to hesitate on the purchase of this particular Bible. Much time and effort has been expended to make it as easy to understand while being true to the original text as possible. I even recommend this to adults who find themselves confused by other versions.
