ISLAND BREEZES

This is a book any toddler could love.

It’s sturdy and has short Bible stories just right for a toddler’s attention span. The table of contents will help parents choose which story to read from Genesis to Revelation.

The illustrations are beautifully done with a child in most of them.

I think the entire book is just right for a little one, especially the handle. I can see little hands loving to carry this around.
