Book SynopsisEntertaining retelling of Bible stories ideal for 7+ year old childrenTrade Review"I had not appreciated what an amusing book the Bible is until I saw it through Robert Duncan's eyes." -- Church of England Newspaper"An irresistible interpretation of the Scriptures' was how I described this slender but brilliant tome when it first appeared back in 1976, when my children, who loved it, were a lot younger - or even non-existent in some cases. Like the work on which they are based, Robert Duncan's entertaining retelling of these stories has survived the test of time and will, I hope, thanks to this revived and refreshed edition, entrance many future generations." -- Sir Tim Rice, lyricist and author"The stories are beautifully and succinctly told with gentle humour. Each story would take around ten minutes to read and I can imagine most children not wanting to stop at one. Would make an ideal book as a gift at a christening or dedication and if you have a library of children's books at church, this would be a delightful addition to the collection." -- Andy Peck; Premier YCW Magazine Online Hub

In his adult life Carey fulfilled many different roles such as husband, father and schoolmaster. He was also a preacher and pastor for the Baptist denomination and had a great passion to bring the gospel to other lands. He was one of the key individuals in 1792 to form The Baptist Missionary Society.

There he used his linguistic talents to translate the Bible into many Indian languages including Bengali, Hindi and Sanskrit. This book will introduce you to a young lad who learned to make shoes but who also became the father of today’s missionary movement.
