About this book

Creation and the Garden of Eden provide the starting point for this children's account of the life of Jesus. The anonymous author explains why Jesus comes into the world, then turns to Mary, Joseph and the birth at Bethlehem. Short sentences and explanations of unfamiliar words make the stories accessible to young readers. Descriptions of the Jordan, Galilee and Jerusalem introduce the places where the events unfold.

The contents trace Jesus' childhood, teaching and works, and list selected songs, psalms and prayers. Beside the Lake of Galilee, tired disciples seek rest, crowds follow their boat, and five loaves and two fish provide a meal for thousands. The author pauses to explain words and draw moral lessons from people's decisions. For families reading biblical stories together, the book offers a direct narrative that connects its religious teaching with care for others and responsibility for one's actions.
