Feeling Mislead
I have just received my shipment of 8 copies of this book only to discover that there is NO CD included as written in all the reviews. No where on the ad does it state "CD Sold Seperately." After having just spent $108 of our schools hard earned money on what I felt would be a wonderful classroom resource for my teachers, I feel mislead by the writeup. When looking now for the CD, it plainly states "Book Sold Seperately." How hard would it have been to add that? Upon reading further reviews, I have discovered I am not the only one feeling fooled. I will think hard before I deal with Amazon again!!
We love this children's Bible!
We bought this Bible for our son when he was 18 months old and he immediately loved it. The version we bought came with the cassette tapes, and he really enjoyed listening to the stories and songs in the car. Unfortunately, he practically destroyed the pages of the Bible at that age, and it's now all taped together.
We later bought a new Bible & CD set (since our newer vehicle doesn't have a cassette player) but have kept the old one as well. Our younger son now enjoys looking at the old Bible and the older son looks at the newer Bible (since he can now take better care of it). He also takes it to church with him.
I am not too crazy about some of the songs on the CDs...some of them are fine, but others are "fluff" and rather silly-sounding. I realize that this may appeal to children, but I would prefer to have more sound, reverent music accompanying the Bible stories. We are teaching our kids hymns, too, so no harm done, I suppose. So that's the reason for 4 stars rather than 5 stars.
At any rate, I still highly recommend this Bible & CD set. From listening to the 4th CD almost daily, I discovered that my son (4yo) was able to recite, with little prompting, the first 8 pages of the New Testament! Very exciting for us!
Definitely recommended.
Best Total Bible Overview for Children
My 13 month old daugher loves the songs on this CD set. As she grows older and can understand more, she will have a grasp of something from each and every book of the Bible. Great product!
The BEST purchase to make for kids!
Fun songs, great voices for the words of the Book. Buy the companion Bible, and you will be set. Our kids know more about the Bible because of this CD/book!!!
Great Product
This is a good product that can be used to help children learn to read while learning about the Bible. The CD set is a great compliment to it, but you need to order it separately. Great Buy!
