A highly illustrated account of the life of Jesus, for under 7s. In nearly 30 spreads, the book shows and tells the events of Jesus' life, and the main points of his teaching. The text and captions are very short, allowing the pictures to give most impact. Lots of extra 'margin' pictures show glimpses of everyday life. These help children to imagine what it might have been like to be among the crowds who saw Jesus' miracles, listened to his teaching and his stories, and watched the dramatic events of his life take place.
