My son loved learning about this story. He is three and loved stomping and shouting. He wanted to read it again right when we finished. I also really liked the Jesus tie in at the end.
If you want to get your little one excited about reading time, then you have to read the newest book in Tim Thornborough's The Very Best Bible Stories series.
Your child's excitement and anticipation will shine through as you read and act out the battle of Jericho together in Joshua and the Very Strong City.
Just try to stop yourself from tromping and stomping along with the soldiers as they march around Jericho each day.
Is it time to blow your trumpet? Not yet. Be ready for the moment.
What a delight to read and act out. This book will provide opportunities to create many wonderful memories for years to come.
I really like Jennifer Davison's illustrations. They are so cute, and toddlers will enjoy studying the little faces with their emotions.
The font type in the book naturally encourages the reader to portray the emotions and accompanying actions as they read.
Another engaging activity is the counting as the soldiers tromp and stomp around the city during the battle of Jericho.
This book is recommended for ages 2-4. The book has a hard cover and the pages inside are bright and glossy.
This is one of the best toddler books that I have had the privilege to review. I highly recommend it.
Homeschooling families can get their children off to a great start by introducing Bible stories to their young'uns with this story and the entire set.
Also, Sunday school or children church teachers can use this book for a pre-made, hands-on lesson as they act out the story marching around the classroom.
Excellent job, Mr. Thornborough. Very well done.
Our family loves this series of books. The Bible story is always clear but told in a way that is easy for children to grasp. While the age range is 2-4, I read this with my almost 6-year-old, and she was excited she could read parts of the story as well. There is a lot of repetition, which helps with early readers and drives home key takeaways from the Bible. With colorful illustrations and crafted content, this book would be a great addition to your children's library.
