The World Jesus Knew: A Curious Kid's Guide to Life in the First Century (Curious Kids' Guides, 4)

I really love these books. The images are great and the information is so helpful in better understanding the world of the Bible. Great at almost any age.

I really like this book. The book contains some really interesting facts told in really entertaining ways with wonderful illustrations.

The media could not be loaded. This is a great book for visual learners and children. Helps let them see what the world was like during the saviors life.

No surprises, looks good

So many interesting details about the time period. We love it. My kids are elementary aged.

The information in this book is a lot fun for kids and adults, however the author states a few personal opinions, that I found were not biblically based. However, I was able to use some of the author’s views, which did raise an eyebrow a time or two, as teachable moments. I found that this can be an informative book to help deepen the understanding of life in Jesus’ time. Also, this book contains awesome descriptive illustrations that are vivid and bright, capturing the attention of readers of all ages, which also have spurred on some really great discussions. That being said, I do recommend this book, but be mindful that you may not find it 100% agreeable.

I purchased this book, and three others in the series, for the upper elementary class that I teach. It presents information in a way that the children can understand and enjoy. The price was reasonable, packing was secure, and shipping was timely. My wish would be that if multiple copies are purchased for the children there would be a discount.Hugh R.

This book provides a wealth of information about the world Jesus lived in. The context it provides is very helpful in studying the New Testament. The kids have enjoyed learning about common clothing, food, social structure and even how to understand social position by what was worn. Excellent book for everyone in the family.
