Bible For Children. Volume Two: The New Testament with Songs and Plays

Westminster Press, Philadelphia, 1969 First English language edition. A beautiful book with high-quality paper, printing and b/w illustrations by Piet Klaasse. Dustcover illustrated with Piet Klaasse illustrations in color. NOT ex-library. Aqua cloth-covered boards, 10 x 7 1/4 inches, 319 pp. Book fine. Dustcover very good minus (moderate edgewear and rubbing, with one area of erosion of paper measuring about 3/4 inch in greatest dimension, front panel; faint sticker shadow, front panel; three closed tears, 1 inch, 5/8 inch and 1/4 inch; price clipped). Despite these defects, the dustcover is still quite attractive. "I have seen many children's Bibles in Europe and America --- I have never seen one more attractive to the eye or more satisfying for its purpose." (H. A. Hamilton, World Council of Churches). "The New Testament volume of Dr. Klink's work fulfills the expectations created by its Old Testament predecessor. In particular, there is nothing here of the air of unreality found in so many Bible story-books. It is made obvious that our Lord and the Disciples were real, living persons --- speaking, acting and suffering in our own world." (Professor F. F. Bruce, Faculty of Theology, University of Manchester, England). (K083). 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Very Good.
