The Compassion Storybook Bible
When we become more like Jesus, we have compassion for others.
This is the heart and soul of The Compassion Storybook Bible. Children will enjoy reading some well-known stories in the Bible such as Noah, Abraham and Sarah, Daniel, Esther, The Good Samaritan, and of course, Jesus—learning that the ultimate story is God’s love for us, written throughout the pages of the Bible.
The stories included in this book will help children see the world through the eyes of compassion and cultivate empathy, kindness, and passion for others. Each Bible story is followed by a focus verse, three discussion questions, and a personal prayer incorporating the theme of the story. It’s just right for a bedtime Bible storybook, homeschool curriculum, or a family mealtime devotional.
The illustrations are warm and engaging. They show diversity of age, gender, and race to represent the inclusivity of God’s tender care for all people. The Compassion Storybook Bible is unique in that it focuses on ordinary people experiencing extraordinary love.

Family Friendly Devotional – We have absolutely loved reading this book together as a family. Our boys look forward to it each evening, and it has become a meaningful part of our nightly routine. Each story ends with a sweet prayer, and our boys enjoy taking turns reading the prayer out loud, which has been a wonderful way for them to practice both reading and praying aloud.

These stories teach about a compassionate God. With 53 stories Crystal Bowman and Sue Schlesman have written a book you and your child will read through repeatedly. Each Bible story is followed with a Bible verse, three questions and a short prayer. THE COMPASSIONATE STORYBOOK BIBLE begins with Genesis and ends Revelation.Give this book to parents and grandparents whether they know Jesus or not. The final pages include the simple Gospel for every reader. This little book is powerful and I hope becomes a classic. I highly recommend it?
