The Lion Bible to Keep for Ever Reviews

This really is likely to be a Bible to keep forever and read over and over again - maybe even through more than one generation! -- Melanie Carroll * The Good Bookstall *
`The starting lines that set in context the ideas and intent of each story for young readers, in no way interfere with the enjoyment of a good well told story, which is provided every time.' * Together *

About Lois Rock

LOIS ROCK has established an international reputation as a children's writer. Specialising in Bible stories, prayer books, and information books, her books have been translated into over 30 languages with sales of 4 million copies. Sophie Allsopp spent her childhood endlessly painting, sewing, cutting, and sticking - basically making stuff all the time (except when she was exploring). She studied for an illustration degree in Bath, then set up an illustration business with help from the Prince's Youth Business Trust, which has flourished with a wide range of clients ever since. In her spare time she still makes stuff - jewellery, dresses and needle felting (amongst other things!)
