Review: This collection of around 40 of the Psalms has been paraphrased really well for children from about 2 years old upwards. Each Psalm it covers is summarised into about one verse long so you do not get much detail, but that summary does convey the emotions of the Psalms well. An example is Psalm 69 "When I am sad it feels like I'm underwater, like I'm stuck in the mud, or at the bottom of a dark hole. Pull me from this dark place, God! Save me! I need your help!" Or Psalm 47 "Let's clap our hands and shout with joy, because God is a great stong king! Blow the trumpet for our king! God is king of all the earth. Let's celebrate with songs!" Most story bibles do not cover much in Psalms so this is a great way to introduce young ones to the beauty of Psalms, where so many of us adults frquently turn in times of stress and joy.

Review: I purchased this for kids to read during church service. The pictures are colorful and fun and there is one psalm per page.
