I bought this Bible that my mother read to us every day when we were little. In my memory there was a LOT of passages from the Bible, not only the best known. When I received it, I saw that I had a good memory. I was impressed by the number of stories of the Old Testament that are well treated. It's extremely well written with a vocabulary that is not too "baby." I bought it to use at camp because I was moderator of the biblical thirty children between 6 and 10 years. There have been many mornings where the group of children cheered at the end of playback (when the walls of Jericho collapsed or the enemies flee). They were really thrilled and I think the quality of the text is there for something. I therefore strongly recommend that Bible. Additionally, the illustrations are nice enough, and the format in 365 stories eventually allows a family to give good daily reading habits of children, the coverage is pretty solid and not too thin pages. In short, a great purchase!
