Topical Bible for Kids

Book excerpt: This edition uses the English Standard Version of the Bible. (Also available in KJV and NASB) Topical Bible for Kids contains Scriptures chosen and organized to delight and encourage elementary aged children. Parents and teachers can use this book to nurture active, happy readers of the Bible. It encourages the process of turning to God's word when facing a specific challenge, question, or joy. Can be used as a child's reference book, or a guide for family devotions. Includes 87 topics that children are interested in. Contains explanations to help guide understanding of selected Scriptures, and examples from the Scripture to illustrate the topic. Familiar search terms, and cross references to help children understand biblical opposites (e.g., stealing and giving; pride and humility) as well as synonyms they haven't learned. Verses in their entirety, rather than a reference or excerpt. A resource that requires looking up a verse twice is discouraging to young readers.
