"Because it's never too early to teach God's Word," the husband and wife team of Edward and Sarah Bolme have created a wonderful series of board books specifically for the youngest, soon-to-be book lovers in your family!  Baby Bible Board Books are sturdy, colorful, truth-filled books sure to delight babies and toddlers alike.  The perfect size for little hands, I can just imagine toddlers carrying these beloved books to mom or dad, climbing up in their lap, eager to hear these stories of Jesus told over and over again.

We were sent the first collection of four titles: Stories of Jesus.  This collection features the titles Jesus Helps a Blind Man, Jesus Feeds the People, Jesus Heals a Little Girl, and Jesus Stops a Storm.  Each book features bright illustrations and tells these timeless Bible stories in short, easy-to-understand sentences.  My favorite part of each book is the "application" on the last two pages.  Transitioning from illustrations of Bible stories, the last two facing pages feature an illustration of a "modern" family with a faith lesson that teaches the "point" of the story and a Bible verse.  For instance, after reading Jesus Stops a Storm, there is a picture of a boy in bed, with a lightning storm seen through his window and Jesus standing beside his bed.  The statement on this last page is, "Jesus keeps you safe." and the verse, Psalms 4:8 which says, "I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety."

Baby Bible Board Books are wonderful tools for parents to use to instill God's Word in their children from their earliest days.
