Are you looking for a child friendly Bible story book? Heroes and Villains of the Bible has actual Bible text from the International Children’s Bible. Pictures are interspersed throughout the book and a number of character’s stories are told from the Old and New Testaments. Some of the heroes covered are Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Miriam, Moses, Rahab, Joshua, Gideon, Ruth, Samuel, Mordecai, Esther, Daniel, Jonah, Mary & Joseph, John the Baptist, the Good Samaritan, Nicodemas, Peter, Joseph of Arimithea, Stephen, Philip and Saul. Each hero’s story is noted by a lion. Each villain’s story is noted by a serpent. Some of the villains covered are Cain, Joseph’s Brothers, Potiphar’s wife, Pharaoh, Delilah, Goliath, Jezebel & Ahab, Haman, Herod, Herodias, Judas, and Pilate. At the end of the book is a section for Notes for Heroes.
My preference for a Bible story book using actual Bible text would be to use King James Bible text, but that is not the case for this book. The text is very readable and understandable, just not my preference.
