Levend Water: Het Evangelie van Johannes

The retelling of the wedding at Cana had my kids wide-eyed, and the language actually holds up when read aloud at bedtime. It's a single volume, so there's no fumbling with a stack of cards mid-story.

My 6-year-old actually asks to read this one at bedtime, which never happens with our other Bible books. The retelling keeps the gospel of John in language she follows without dumbing down the story, and the illustrations hold her attention the whole way through. We've already read it four nights in

My six-year-old actually sat through the whole thing, which never happens with Bible stories. The illustrations pull him in, though I wish a couple of the passages were simplified a bit more for his age. Still, we've read it three nights in a row now.
