All About… Bible Animals

By Simona Piscioneri

About This Book:

Part of the All About series.

Ages: 4+ ( 7+ for independent reading)

Kids will love this fun and fascinating book bursting with colorful photography and facts about Bible animals. It also explores the Bible stories they connect to, starting with creation and ending with Peter’s vision in Acts 10.

Inside the pages of All about Animals, you'll find:
- engaging content suitable for children aged 7-10

And all in a hardback format, making this the perfect gift.

As well as providing fascinating facts about Bible animals, this resource will help children to engage with the Bible in a whole new way and marvel at the God who made everything. As author Simona Piscioneri says in her introduction:

“The Bible says that when we look at his creation, it helps us understand God. Next time you are amazed by the details of a tiny ladybird, the swimming action of a platypus or the strength of a soaring eagle, remember: that’s God showing you what he is like.”

This book is part of the "All about…" series, which thrills young minds with fascinating facts while teaching them truths about God. Designed by Andre Parker, co-creator of the “Seek and Find” series of books.

My Review:

I am so delighted to have this fantastic resource on our homeschool shelf! I love the way this book shares Scripture and Biblical events in relation to the animal kingdom God created while pointing children marvel at God and to know and understand Him better. Not only is the book full of short snippets of easy to understand facts about animals, but also moral truths such as “actions have consequences”, explaining about sin, forgiveness and even the plan of salvation. Any book that highlights the truth of the Gospel is a win for our family!

For our daughter (aged 4.5 years), this book was absolutely riveting. She poured over the beautiful, photographs for hours, asking me to read her the text in the little bubbles. She squealed at the big snakes and exclaimed over the soft deer. The text was very easy for her to understand and the information was easy absorb in those short snippets. She loved identifying several unique animals like whale sharks, axolotls and chameleons.

I liked that the book was informative, educational and full of Scripture. The exciting, interactive way this book is formatted and presented made it fun to read together and would be appropriate for multiple age ranges. The words encouraged both myself and my daughter to crave God’s Word and want to learn more about His creation in which we live.

This would be an excellent resource for any homeschool family or church/school library plus a great addition to any child’s bookshelf! Though geared towards elementary school age children, my preschooler loved it as well and I can see it appealing even to some middle school aged children.
