New Testament Stories: Jesus Comes to Us

Bible Stories for Baby Hands are board books that bring the beauty of traditional religious art to a format that the littlest ones can benefit from. The color lithographs on each page are based on engravings by Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld for his 1860 Bible in Pictures. Each one is meant to dramatically encapsulate the story it represents, so that by simply pointing to elements in the picture, an adult can easily tell the story to the child. Therefore, for the youngest children, the pictures alone suffice. Beneath each illustration is a quote from scripture that pertains to the story that is depicted above. Then, as the child gets older, the full story behind each picture is provided.

New Testament Stories: Jesus Comes to Us. This includes the Annunciation, the Nativity, the Presentation in the Temple, the visit of the Magi, and the flight into Egypt. Several of the beautiful prophecies of Isaiah and Zechariah regarding the Messiah are also found in this book.
