The retelling of the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as presented by Archpriest Alexander Sokolov is considered the classic and most successful option for introducing children to the eternal values of Christianity. Biblical subjects were selected by Sokolov carefully and carefully - as only a clergyman can do. The most important events of sacred history are described in a language understandable to a child, and unobtrusive teachings and advice are woven into them. Moreover, each story can be used by parents or teachers to talk with the younger generation about the meaning of life, truth and lies, faith and unbelief and other important issues. The book is given a special charm by episodes from non-canonical books, as well as stories from church tradition: for example, about the childhood of the Mother of God, about the young years of Jesus Christ, about the baptism of Rus' by the Apostle Andrew the First-Called. This edition of the Bible is the most colorful and illustrated among all, released in Russia. For the first time in the world, Gustave Doré's classic, unrivaled illustrations are offered in color! High-quality binding, unique illustrations, beautiful text and a large book format make this children's Bible an excellent gift for a child, for a family library, or for Sunday school classes.
