(I am quite sure that this book speaks for itself)
However, I would like to note that Dean Bryant the illustrator might be a second favorite behind Ruth E. Newton. These are some of the sweetest images I have ever seen.
Each illustration was matched to a beautiful bible verse. Short and sweet for young children to understand.
I chuckled when I saw the tag still stuck to the back...I am sure I would have paid more than a quarter for it...

Darling graphics. I especially love the clothes on the little girl. So sweet.
Beautiful graphics. Wish the world was still like this. thanks, Dot
Sweet, sweet, sweet! I dont' know that I've seen this illustrator before (I love Ruth Newton, too, though!). I'll have to keep an eye out for him!
I love this book! It's one I've never seen. Such pretty pictures. I grab any children's Bible storybooks I can find!
That is such a sweet book. Love all the pictures. The children are so cute. Thank you for sharing.

Aw! They are helping to dress the baby! ♥
Eeek, so much cuteness. I adore that image with the blossoms and bluebirds - it is everything I love about vintage illustration.
Those illustrations are just gorgeous!

These illustrations are just gorgeous. I had books like this in the 60's and I just loved them. Its sad as Sandy says in one of the earlier comments that children today probably wouldn't enjoy reading a book like this anymore. Thanks for sharing something so special - Sharon
Priceless! Oh, how I wish more Children's Books were filled with these virtues and truths. Thank you, sweet Renee for adding this bright spot to my day!

I also have this book. It's one of my treasured books from my childhood. =)
Cute, cute, cute!! I love mama's hairstyle. :0
I love little books like this to keep around for my grandchildren. One of their favorite traditions is for me to read them a book before bedtime and this would be one that I hope they would choose time and time again.
What a beautiful book! I have not seen that one before. So pretty!
