What Is the Bible?

About What Is the Bible?

In this vibrant picture book adventure, the authors of the #1 New York Times bestseller What Is God Like? invite children to learn about the Bible—what it tells us about God and what God says about us!

Children have been wondering about the Bible for centuries. What do all these long-ago stories have to do with each other—and with me? This whimsical and lyrical book, inspired by the work and ideas of the late Rachel Held Evans and completed by her good friend Matthew Paul Turner, explains that the Bible is a big library of amazing stories about God, the world, and Jesus. When you read those stories, you will understand the world differently—and you can make the world different too. 

What Is the Bible? is a spectacular journey, guiding children to see how God’s story and our own lives are delightfully intertwined. Kids and parents alike will see that God’s story is big enough to be found all over the world and close enough to find in our own hearts.
