2019 Best Book Awards, Winner: Children's Religious 2018 Association of Catholic Publishers' "Excellence in Publishing Awards," Second Place: Children's Books 2018 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards, Silver: Religion/Spirituality Written by popular Catholic children's author Amy Welborn, this beautifully illustrated collection of Bible stories for kids and their families is uniquely arranged according to where the stories fall in the liturgical year and when they are proclaimed at Mass. Divided into five sections--Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter Season, and Ordinary Time--each section is subdivided into Old and New Testament stories. From "the Fall" to St. Paul, from the Exodus of the Israelites to the Ascension of Jesus, Loyola Kids Book of Bible Stories nurtures family and individual reading of the Bible at home, while familiarity with these stories will help children connect far more meaningfully with the liturgy.
