DESCRIPTION:
From Publishers Weekly DePaola retells New Testament parables, many of which invite further discussion about their messages (some of the parables will require a bit of puzzling through for picture book readers). "The Good Samaritan" is included, as is "The Mustard Seed," "The Prodigal Son" and other pieces from the books of Matthew, Mark and Luke, parables that dePaola makes into entertaining, thought-provoking material for young readers. The palette of the illustrations has an intense, hand-mixed look; the pictures reveal clues about the stories' meanings. Ages 7-
Kindle Customer said Tomie dePaola has written another great one!. Great for any Sunday school classroom. Beautiful pictures, faithful retelling Like any dePaola book "The Parables of Jesus" is beautifully illustrated. The author's rendition of the Parables is true to the Bible and easy for children to understand. It is my favorite resource for teaching the parables to my kids' preschool playgroup. I usually don't like paying more than $5 for a used book. great book missysnow Book gives a brief intro to different bible Parables. Wonderful art. Lovely book. Good for all ages. Typical DePaolo style
