Questions

What is included?

Twelve story sections drawn from Genesis 1–50, 38 illustrations, questions for discussion, notes for grown-ups and a source map. The selected stories are retold in original narration; not every passage or verse of Genesis is reproduced.

Which languages?

English, German (Deutsch) and Danish (Dansk): the same 38 illustrations and the same twelve stories, with the narration, questions and notes translated for children. Bible names follow the Luther Bible in German and the Danish Bible Society’s spelling in Danish. Choose the language above; the cover names it too.

Hardcover or softcover?

The same 52 full-colour pages, 6 × 9 in. In English the hardcover is a glossy casewrap on 80# (about 118 gsm) coated paper, printed by Lulu, and the softcover is perfect-bound on 115 gsm coated paper with a glossy cover, printed by Bookvault. The German and Danish editions are printed by Lulu on 80# coated paper with a matte cover, as a casewrap hardcover or a perfect-bound softcover. The illustrations extend to the page edges in every edition.

Is this suitable for independent reading?

The edition is intended for shared reading with children aged 8–12. Notes for grown-ups support discussion of difficult themes. Illustrations are interpretations of the stories.

Is this a Bible?

No. It is an illustrated retelling inspired by Genesis, for families. For the scripture text itself, see the Five Books of Moses, where Genesis is printed in full.
