Children’s Bibles, like this one from Colombia, present short versions of stories from the Bible. This Bible has stories from both the Old and New Testaments and is filled with color illustrations. The text was written by María Luisa Calero, M.C.I., and Luis Alberto Roballo L., C.Ss.R., and illustrated by Evaristo Ramos. The Bible is accompanied by two VHS cassettes featuring six parables of Jesus: the talents, the sower, the lost drachma, the good Samaritan, the lost sheep, and the prodigal son.
