A fun and interactive introduction to a well-loved Bible story - now in board book format

A collection of Bible stories.

A deft but poker-faced text leads the child browser through multiple scenarios of mischief caused by the repulsive pupils at the University of Vile. At first it looks like fun, with monstrous students giving full vent to bad behaviour, and far more interesting than the next-door Academy of Manners. But at the end of the day, victims of their own misdemeanours and now feeling sorry for themselves, the pupils of the University look longingly towards the Academy of Manners where they realise they could, just possibly, be much happier... Sarah Horne''s scratchy illustrative style gives life to a horrible cast of nasties - the epitome of vile.

Key episodes from the Bible are accompanied by mini features that provide glimpses of how and why the Bible was compiled in this accessible guide. The subjects addressed include storytelling, Bible languages, types of writing, the prophets, the Gospels, the early Christians, gathering the books, and how to read the Bible.

Appealing and useful things to make-and-do as part of learning the principles of a greener lifestyle.

This children''s Bible retells 20 favourite stories, one spread at a time, in illustrated frame-by-frame episodes. The individual stories - from Creation to Paul - flow carefully into each other to give children a clear idea of the overall story of the Bible, and with around 120 words and 3-4 illustrated frames per story, the result is a modern looking retelling with great easy-to-read-and-follow attraction. With a padded cover and the stories printed on a thick card, this Bible has a manageable heft and enough durability for everyday reading.

When completed, the next scene in the story is revealed.With cuddly illustrations with lots of animal appeal, these jigsaws will provide hours of fun.

A jolly and appealing lift-the-flap book with lots of smiley discoveries to be made.

Annabel Hudson''s characters are full of warmth and character and they bring a special charm to the ever-popular episodes of the Nativity story. The lift-the-flap feature allows young book users to interact playfully with the story; for example, looking into the full rooms at the inn, discovering hidden creatures in the stable, yet more angels on the hillside, or search the market with the wise men for gifts. The heavy, glossy paper used gives the book a real user-friendly quality.

This attractive book will be appreciated for its warm exploration of a perennially important theme. This look-and-learn book consists of colourful pictures of children doing the things that underpin a healthy lifestyle - staying clean, taking exercising and eating well - along with brief captions and thoughts which provide useful discussion starter points, for use either by a parent or teacher sharing the book with a child or class, or for a child to reflect on as they browse the book individually. The whole concept conveys a simple message about healthy living and the importance of looking after ourselves and each other.

This colourful, chunky board book provides 20 cheerful and reassuring prayers for little children to learn; helping to encourage those early words at the same time. The padded covers and rounded corners mean that this book is ideal for little hands and everyday play. This book is the twin of the best-selling My Little BIBLE Board Book, with the same author/illustrator team and styling.

Describes simple ways to care for the planet and the environment.
