Bill Martin, Jr. (1916-2004) was an elementary-school principal, teacher, writer, and poet. His more than 300 books, among them the bestselling classics Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See ; Polar Bear Polar Bear What Do You Hear ; Panda Bear Panda Bear What Do You See ; and Chicka Chicka Boom Boom , are a testament to his ability to speak directly to children. Martin held a doctoral degree in early childhood education. Born in Kansas, he worked as an elementary-school principal in Chicago before moving to New York City, where he worked in publishing, developing innovative reading programs for schools. After several years, he devoted himself full-time to writing his children's books. He lived in New York until 1993, when he moved to Texas. He lived in the east Texas woods, near the town of Commerce, until he passed away in 2004.

The author sketches some beautiful Bible stories in this book. I adored the illustrations. Good work.

Simple, but surprising trip through the Bible.
It was great that it ended with Jesus and everyone seeking him, however it missed the big themes of the Bible of sin and redemption so the question would remain why are they seeking Jesus?
It would be harder to fit that in in this book, but not that much harder.
Anyway a decent book, but it needs a person to perhaps explain details off each story to lead one to the great story of redemption.

Next to the Bible this book is my favorite in the library. All 3 branches in Pope County have it to check out.

Hard to find good Christian books for kids that aren't cheesy. This one is a kid-pleaser and introduces children to some great Biblical heroes. By the same author as Brown Bear, Brown Bear.
