Easter: A Selection of Verses from the King James Bible by Jan Pieńowski -- PUBLIC ONLY

Pieńkowski, Jan Easter: A Selection of Verses from the King James Bible. PICTURE BOOK. Alfred A. Knopf, 1989. $15.99. Content: PG.

Illustrations accompany a variety of verses from the King James version of the Bible, telling the story of the first Easter. Finishes with a call to go forth and baptize people around the world.

Due to its strong religious content, this one might be more appropriate for a church, private religious school, or public library. Many of the illustrations are dark, and one depicts a hanging. Because of this, and because of the difficulty some children may have with deciphering the text, parental involvement is recommended when reading this one.
