I don't know what I wrote above, but my 3 year old tends to tune out of this. My 5 year old enjoys it. I'd say somewhere around Kindergarten and up. As for my 3 year old, well, my usual philosophy with Bible reading is to let the preschoolers get whatever they get from what the rest of us do, and to pull out a picture filled book periodically (like Peter Spier's stuff) to get something on their level sometimes.<br /><br />As for time... well, this is the only one I've done for TN. I have no intention of pumping these out too frequently. It was just that I saw this and had to have it :) I'm definitely going to stick to things that I don't think are going to be terribly complicated to review, and I'll most certainly be choosy while on the Crew.Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08416139988162419457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53873677645881723.post-71317757677161232622009-12-14T15:39:03.890-07:002009-12-14T15:39:03.890-07:00Well, I had to rush over and leave you a comment, ...Well, I had to rush over and leave you a comment, and your post intrigued me. From what I gather this would not be a study bible, but something that you could read to your younger kids, right? <br /><br />And how do you make time to review for TN and the Crew?Michelle Gibsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06381380110120976720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53873677645881723.post-84500333438597120422009-12-14T08:38:35.102-07:002009-12-14T08:38:35.102-07:00Karla -- just read your review and commented! You...Karla -- just read your review and commented! You are so concise! I just ramble on and on!<br /><br />Carrie -- I too adore the "old" look. It reminds me of reading my grandma's Bible to my kids. Only I wouldn't dare to do that, because hers is nearly falling apart. But every time I pick this Bible up to read, I think of her. <br /><br />Go check Mardel's, I'm sure you could get a look at it there. Probably less expensive to order it online, but I haven't priced regular books there.Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08416139988162419457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53873677645881723.post-44714938250206732992009-12-13T23:23:37.331-07:002009-12-13T23:23:37.331-07:00I know it's what least matters in a Bible, but...I know it's what least matters in a Bible, but I love the cover - I love the new books that look old. :)<br /><br />We have a "Children's Story Bible" that seems similar to this (only not as cool-looking). It has a few pictures in it, lumped together in just a few sections in the book. My kids like the pictures, but I'd rather they were not in there, because the kids never want to read any of the stories that don't hve pictures! :)<br /><br />We bought the book that we have new, but it was written a long time ago, so I'd like to look at this one to see if it's a little more "readable" than the one we have.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08506810697268113777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53873677645881723.post-36975760788279810762009-12-13T16:47:51.304-07:002009-12-13T16:47:51.304-07:00I reviewed it as well, and I was equally impressed...I reviewed it as well, and I was equally impressed!
