The Lion Book of Five-Minute Bible Stories
Kindergarten-Grade 3–This collection of 20 Bible stories is narrated by British voice talent Clifford Norgate. The well-written stories are from the book by Lois Rock (Augsburg Books, 2005). The reading begins with simple introductory material regarding the culture of the period. The paraphrased stories, presented chronologically from the creation through the crucifixion of Christ, are concise and easily understood. Among the stories are: The Beginning of the World, Noah and the Flood, Abraham and Isaac, Joseph and His Dreams, Daniel and the Lions, The Birth of Jesus, The Story of the Cross, and more. This title will make a nice addition to collections that circulate religious materials, and will well serve those interested in supplemental or introductory Bible stories for group or individual listening.–Kirsten Martindale, formerly Menomonie Public Library, WICopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
