Loy, Durand. Color the Stories of the Bible: An Inspiring Christian Storybook for Kids (Published in 2024 by Durand Books). The Stories of the Bible: An Inspiring Christian Storybook for Kids is a collection of 28 simple stories from the Bible, from Creation and the Garden of Eden, through the lives of Noah, Joseph, Moses, David, Daniel, Jonah, and others in the Old Testament, into the accounts of Jesus and Paul in the New Testament, and ending with the Armor of God with lavishly-colored, full-page illustrations. This companion book, Color the Stories of the Bible, contains the same material, but the illustrations are black and white drawings for children to color.
Each page is carefully crafted to capture the essence of beloved stories, providing an immersive experience that fosters a love for both art and scripture. A child’s imagination will blossom while coloring scenes from Noah’s Ark, David and Goliath, the Nativity of Jesus, and many more. Every stroke of the crayon becomes a meaningful exploration of the Bible’s timeless teachings, creating an interactive and memorable learning experience. These carefully chosen stories and illustrations highlight the values of love, compassion, and bravery and are accompanied by encouraging messages that will leave a lasting impression on young hearts. This book will provide a wonderful opportunity for fun and meaningful conversations about the values and lessons found within the Bible.
