Very nice story set in verse to make it great as a read-aloud. I was going to use it for MOPPETS, but it may be a little long-winded for that setting. The story and illustrations make it a nice book for an older preschooler/younger school aged child.

I have read this to my children when they were young at bed time.

A poetic retelling of a bible story in rhyme. Easy to read. Great illustrations too!
