This gently illustrated volume brings the early chapters of the Book of Mormon to young ears in clear, simple language. Designed for Sunday‑school classes, primary groups and home reading, each picture matches a page on the familiar Book of Mormon chart, making the stories easy to follow. The book invites children to explore ancient prophets and their messages through bright artwork and straightforward narration.
The first tale follows the prophet Lehi, who lived in Jerusalem long before the Savior’s birth. He warns the city’s people of upcoming danger if they ignore God’s commandments, and his brave stand shows how love and obedience bring protection. Young listeners will hear how faith can guide families through trials and discover the connection between Jerusalem’s ancient families and the peoples of America.

A lively force in 19th-century Mormon history, this English-born immigrant became a publisher, missionary, politician, and senior church leader whose journals and public work capture a fast-changing American West. His life joined faith, print culture, and politics in a way that still makes him a fascinating figure.
