As the title suggests, this is more a reference book than bedtime reading, but it is exceptionally well-illustrated (by Peter Dennis) and shares with the best reference books that hypnotic quality that can lead to hours of random browsing. Although split into sections that tell a particular story (e.g. "The Patriarchs," "The First Israelite Kings," "The Twelve Disciples") most of the text is given over to roughly 100-word biographies--many illustrated--of individuals. These range in familiarity from Abraham and Moses to Sihon and Achish, and are interspersed with dozens of useful little insets on subjects such as the Exodus and the Divided Kingdom. (Ages 6 and older)
