A beautiful book of illustrated Bible stories, retold by the worlds best-loved cleric.
Nobel prizewinner, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, re-tells over fifty of his favourite Bible stories for an audience of young readers.
From classics such as the stories of Noah and the calming of the storm, to less-known stories such as Naboths Vineyard or Ruth, the Archbishop makes these time-honoured stories come to life in his own inimitable voice.
The book has a truly international flavour, with illustrators from around the world contributing their interpretations of the stories. The result is a glorious, and great value, package that will inspire a generation of children and their carers.
