An encyclopaedia is always instructive, but often severe and daunting, especially for young people. Here is a different book. This large picture book in the style of this comic book for children from 8-9 years a wealth of information on history, social life, religious life, the technology of the people of the Bible. They are grouped into three main sections: "Daily Life" (food, family, commercial, residential, etc.). "Faith and religious life" (festivals, rituals, prayer, priests and prophets, etc.). "Places, made and ideas "(geography, surrounding empires and civilizations, etc.).. The designs are inspired by naive but archaeological data safe. The text is brief and concise, he would win often be reviewed by an adult.
Each section begins with a short cartoon quite amusing and appropriate. A beautiful gateway to the biblical world. A beautiful gift (s') offer.
