Great resource for kids (and adults too) showing how the Bible came to be as we know it now. Touches on the writers, Biblical timelines, scribes and translators, as well as missionaries.. Also goes into how publishing has changed over the centuries (papyrus to parchment to codex). Lots of illustrations, color and graphics. Index, scriptural references.
