Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary For Kids





Sometimes you just have to see a book to really appreciate it.  This Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary For Kids is bright, colorful, and full of photographs.  The cover gives you an idea of how colorful the inside of the dictionary is, but you can see a sample of its pages HERE at the publisher's website.



When this book arrived at our home, my initial response was "Wow!" I loved its bright colorful pages, and so did my children.  They immediately began flipping through it (from the 4 year old on up to the 15 year old).  The book is designed for children ages 5-10, but even my older children enjoyed it.



This is an illustrated dictionary.  It  includes an alphabetical listing of people, places, things, animals, foods, and plants of the Bible.  Each word includes a definition or explanation, an illustration, and a Bible reference for where it is covered in the Bible.  There are also maps and reconstruction illustrations of buildings and towns sprinkled throughout the dictionary.



This book would make an excellent resource for Christian families, homeschool families, and churches.  If you're looking for a Bible dictionary for your kids, you should definitely take a look at the sample pages.  You really do need to see it to fully appreciate it!




The Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary For Kids is hardcover, with 212 pages.   It retails for $14.99 and is available in local bookstores and on-line stores like Lifeway Christian Stores.
