Chatting Books Online Day 159. Today's recommended book is The New Catholic Picture Bible. The book on the left was given to me by my Grandparents on the occasion of my first holy communion in the 1970s . As you can see it was a favorite book for much of my young life. I carried it everywhere, particularly to church each sunday where I would pull it out and read silently as my young mind would start to wander during mass. I reasoned , and my parents agreed, that reading the bible silently was acceptable to keep me quiet and well behaved for that hour. For the past nearly 50 years this book has made every move with me and still resides on a bookshelf in my home today. One day looking through the shelves I saw the book and knew it was one we should carry at our bookshop, and we have ever since.
With beautiful full- color illustrations , more than 100 popular bible stories are told in a simple style that young readers will enjoy. This hardcover (padded) , 232 page book sells for just $10.95 a copy.
