10 of those

A boy who ended up attending his own funeral, a man who lived to be an eye-boggling 930 years old, a duo of jail-breakers who got away with it ... loads of really jammy things happened to people in Bible times! Andy Robb, author of the Professor Bumblebrain series, has collected together the very jammiest passages of Scripture in 50 Jammiest Bible Stories. Andy s witty and conversational style, plus colourful illustrations, brings God s Word to life for children. Among the collection are the stories of how Jesus healed a man blind from birth, how He irked the religious leaders with what He said and did, how His followers set up the very first churches -- and how we can fit into the ongoing story of God s family today as well. Each story has a cliff-hanger ending and a Bible passage to look up to find out what happened next. The Bible tells us about some remarkable events, and this book will help to introduce readers to the equally remarkable God who lies behind those events.
