A practical guide for Sunday‑school teachers and parents, this volume offers a year‑long journey through the Old Testament followed by a parallel year through the New Testament. Designed for two age groups—children under nine and those older—it presents twelve carefully chosen stories each year, beginning with Adam and Eve, and pairs each narrative with straightforward questions and answers. The format lets teachers tell the story in simple language, sing a hymn, then move the younger group to a quiet room for focused review.
The book supplies printable leaflets so every child can take home the day’s Q&A, encouraging family involvement and reinforcing what was heard. Clear teaching suggestions help instructors prepare ahead, adapt the material, and keep the pace steady even when vacations interrupt the schedule. Whether used in a church class or at home, the lessons aim to embed the essential facts of Scripture in young minds, nurturing a lasting familiarity with the Bible’s core stories.
