This book is not bad at all. Totally Presbyterian, but the parts they pull from the bible are heavily edited to be understood by kids, so whatever.
The only problem I have with it is that it pulls from way to many sections. It starts with Genesis, which is great. And then it moves on to a whole bunch of psalms.
It sneaks something in there about the son of God being born and how he loved children and stuff, which is nice.
The pictures are really nice. But it's all blonde white kids, and there's this one page about spreading the news throughout the world that has bunch of kids in traditional outfits from foreign countries. It's a bit white-savior/racist. But it's an old book, too. Maybe there's a new edition?
