Purpose of this Blog...

You may have noticed that not all books are equal in capturing children's imaginations and in cultivating those innocent, tender souls. My goal is to help you find the ones that do!

ARCH BOOK BIBLE STORIES FOR AGES 4-8


Most of you have probably heard of Arch Book Bible Stories - they have been around for over 35 years!  What I love about them, is that each one is a complete Bible story, told in rhyme with bright illustrations...perfect for reading aloud to children ages 4-8.  They make great summer reading, and are wonderful baptism, nameday, and Easter basket gifts.


Some of our favorites:
THE BOY WHO SAVED HIS FAMILY (Joseph)
THE MEN WHO WALKED IN FIRE (Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego) 
THE MAN CAUGHT BY A FISH (Jonah)
THE BOY WITH A SLING (David)
DAVID AND JONATHAN
THE STORY OF NOAH'S ARK
THE GOOD SAMARITAN
MARY'S STORY (The Virgin Mary and Elizabeth)
THE HAPPIEST SEARCH (the Wise Men)
THE BABY BORN IN A STABLE (Nativity)

Here are a couple of websites that offer them at great prices (around $1.99 each):

    What about my favorite one about Queen Esther, YOUR patron saint?!?!? You forgot that one...
