"A first-rate Bible History for Children, duly divided, and carefully epitomised. Commencing with a short narrative of the Creation, the book carries the reader through the history of the Patriarchs, and describes the career of Moses, and the wanderings of the Children of Israel. The Story of the Judges, Kings and Prophets in Israel follow next, and the History of the Life of our Saviour, and the career of the Apostles, conclude this admirable 'Children's Bible Book.' The Illustrations exceed 150 in number, and are in a high style of art, and the book altogether bears conclusive evidence of the care bestowed upon every department in its production."

"Care appears to have been especially taken 'to tell the stories,' if we may so speak, as much as possible in the language of the Bible, and this, of course, gives additional value to the compilation. Where explanation is required, it has been introduced, and where comment is necessary to render the subject, or any portion of it, easier of comprehension, such comment is, so far as our examination has led us to observe, both carefully and well appended."—_English Churchman._
