About the Author

Elsie Egermeier had a great love for children. As a young teen, she developed an interest in writing that later became a calling from God. When she wrote the Christian classic, Egermeier's Bible Story Book, she tested what she wrote by reading it to children to be sure they understood and enjoyed the stories.

Comprehensive Children's Bible Story Book
The strength of Egermeier's Bible Story Book lies in the narrative. The Bible stories are told very well. This book is engaging and fun to read. Lots of stories that are often left out of children's Bibles are included here, so for that reason alone I would highly recommend it. The Egermeier Bible Story Book is well illustrated, too. My issue with the illustrations is that many of the stories that you would want to see illustrations for are not illustrated at all--there's no picture for Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, or Adam and Eve with the snake. (The illustration in the book is one with Adam and Eve praying with their children after the fall. See my picture.) There's no illustration for the Tower of Babel, the Abraham and Isaac story, David and Goliath, Moses and the burning bush or Jonah and the great fish. (Jonah is shown on the boat.) Many, many other stories are very well illustrated, however. (See pictures.) My point is that this is not the ONLY Children's Story Bible I would want to have for my children. I would still absolutely recommend it, though--perhaps as a companion to The Complete Ilustrated Children's Bible, or CPH's The Story Bible? I have yet to find one children's story Bible that has everything I would like to see. (I collect them.)

Tracking indicated that it was delivered to my mail box. I never received the book. Amazon does not show how I can report this. Received book. This is a great book my great aunt gave me the same book in 1967 for a Christmas gift. My mother read to me from the book throughout my childhood and I have used to book to teach children in church for over 50 years. My first copy wore out and when my husband (a minister) moved to another church they bought me another copy....this copy is now my third copy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Bible Story Book For Children
Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2022

The Egermeier's Bible Story Book was order of 2 books is for 2 of our grandchildren and 1 for a great-grandchild-to-be.

This book goes back prior to my birth and I remember my mother reading Bible stories to me from it prior to me being in kindergarten. Moving forward about 25 years, my spouse bought this book to read to our daughters, and one of the daughters read it to her 2 children. In a few months, one of our granddaughters will have her own small baby to whom she will read the stories. This is definitely a multi-generational hit.

The stories are accurate and follow the scriptures from which these stories are derived. In addition, the art work is a good depiction of life 2000 years ago.

BOTTOM LINE: My wife and I would definitely order this book again. It is an accurate presentation of the stories in the Bible and the art work is something children will like.

I have purchased this book for the church library, for grandchildren and for children of friends. This is
no doubt the best children's Bible story book ever written. It accurately tells the story of the Bible from the beginning to the end. The pictures for each story are beautiful. This is a must have book for the Christian family. It will instill Biblical principles that will last a lifetime for your children.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love it. For my students AND me
Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2014

I am a preschool teacher at a Christian school, and I teach Bible every single day. The Bible story books that my school gave me to go with my lessons do not cover NEAR as many stories as I teach about, and I wanted to have a Bible story book to read out of and show pictures from. I did a LOT of searching and found this one - my searching is done! This is a rare story book because it covers so much of the Bible!!! I love it. I know that it is not the Bible and does not replace the Bible as some argue about, but that is why it is called a story book. And yes it adds some comments or even feelings to help you understand the story better, but don't pastors do this when they preach too? I think it is so helpful! I am 24 and I am reading it straight through myself- I am engaged and almost done reading the old testament portion. I love that it tells you exactly where in the Bible it is referencing from, so that at anytime I can read a story both from my Bible and from this book. It is appropriate for children as well as adults who would like a simple read, it covers so many stories from the Bible, includes Bible references... I think it is the best for getting a good overview of a majority of the stories in the Bible.

5.0 out of 5 stars This reminds me of the Bible story book my mother and dad read to me!
Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2013
Verified Purchase
It's a beautiful book and the stories are well-written and interesting for young ears while still holding true to the scriptures.

I originally got this book to start off our homeschooling day for a 13 yr old boy and a 10 yr old girl. They always remind me that we need to start with the story.

One day they asked if they could take it home to read a story to their sister (5 yrs old). I let them take it home and from that point on, we began sharing it. They'd bring it to me in the morning and I'd read to them; they'd take it home at night and their Mom would read it to the 5 yr old. Then all 3 of the kids were listening to Mom read the story. Finally the book was transferred to Mom so she could have a story time with the kids every night, which was much more valuable to their family time.

In the meantime what am I doing? Well, that's easy. I'm ordering my 2nd Bible Story Book, and yes, I'm ordering this one. I still want one at my house.

One particularly nice thing about this storybook is that they have attempted to keep the stories in the order that they occurred rather than book by book. It makes the stories much more cohesive.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent companion to bible study and for the sheer enjoyment of bible stories
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 11, 2018

The perfect companion to the King James' bible to make clear the meaning of bible stories. This is for my son's 13+ common entrance exams in RS in two years, but it is a wonderful general education to learn about the many inspirational bible stories. My (just-turned) 11 year old son has been reading - and loves - the Greek and Norse myths since he was 7 and I now feel that this should also have been true of the bible stories. We had felt that the bible stories were somehow different from the Greek myths - too firmly in the religious category - so only covered them briefly, but reading them again, they have so much to teach and are as interesting as classical mythology. My son has really enjoyed these 'translations' which make clear and frequent cross references to the bible and which frequently use language from the bible. I also bought a 1947 copy from an Amazon seller of this which I definitely prefer for the more elegant writing and sophisticated expression. My (formerly homeschooled) son is used to reading this kind of writing from the traditional books he has read all his life and he also prefers the older version, but this one is good for general use and perhaps more appropriate for childrens' levels of literacy today.
