Powerful scenes from the Old Testament dramatically come to life in this coloring book. Artists of all ages can apply their coloring skills to 30 boldly rendered biblical scenes. Among them are Adam and Eve being driven out of the Garden of Eden, Cain murdering Abel, Lot fleeing from the destruction of Sodom, Joseph being sold into slavery by his brothers, Moses parting the Red Sea, Noah and the animals entering the ark, the Battle of Jericho, Delilah cutting Samson’s hair, Daniel in the lions’ den, and Jonah being swallowed by the whale.
Ideal for school or home, the ready-to-color illustrations are accompanied by captions that cite biblical books, chapters, and verses. Brief retellings of the stories appear on facing pages.
Here’s an educational activity book that’s also fun to use. Six sturdy, ready-to-use “open” stencils — no pieces to cut or punch out — allow little hands to trace and color favorite pets. Printed on durable cardboard stock, stencils of a dog, cat, turtle, fish, rabbit, and parrot will stand up to repeated use. Three- to eight-year-olds will enjoy re-creating familiar pets; parents and teachers will recognize the importance of a collection that helps youngsters acquire basic motor skills.
