This book is written for 6- to 12-year-olds. It’s a colorful timeline of Scripture using both pictures and text. It is organized as creation, to the promised land, living in the promised land, from one kingdom to two, exile and return, the Messiah, and the early Church. God’s Bible Timeline is not so much a sit-down-and-read-book, but instead it is geared toward the curious thinker. It does a nice job of blending history into the timeline as well. The pages are filled with biblical references and include 18 timelines as well as a pull-out timeline poster.
