A gorgeously illustrated presentation of Bible stories, told by the children in the stories.

"Do you see this child?" - said Jesus. "He's the most important in the kingdom of heaven." An elegantly illustrated collection of favourite Bible stories with an interesting twist. Children are at the heart of many well-loved Bible stories and some of Jesus' most powerful acts and teachings. Margaret McAllister imaginatively retells these tales from the point of view of the children involved. Alida Massari's illustration style, inspired by ancient art and architecture and full of grace and sophistication, is perfectly suited to the book. A beautiful and informative title. Discover these tales as told by the children and by those who loved them best.
