This is a fantastic collection of stories taken from the Old Testament. The author is Jewish in background and adds real depth from that cultural experience. The stories are a fantastic way to get an overview of how the people of God progress through the Bible with background context added to aid understanding. The stories are simple enough for children to understand - 8/9 upwards if read aloud- but engaging enough for adult reading too. Kossoff's style of writing makes it very easy to read and really brings the characters to life. One of my favourites is his re-telling of the story of Jonah as a 'hard-headed, obstinate sort of man. Even when he received a message direct from God he argued.'
Reading bible books are strong food to my body. Our Lord Jesus Christ command us to read his word everyday of our life.
i love david kossoff books.he takes you on a journey to what was happening .probably on a par with corrie tenboon and mother Theresa.
Good
