Read it!

Biblical literacy starts with being able to read from Scripture itself, and The Catholic Children’s Bible was created to help kids do just that. Focused Reading Plans guide children through the important themes of the Bible, from the Great People of Faith to the Miracles of Jesus, Following Jesus, and The Mass!

Find it!

Made for easy navigation, The Catholic Children’s Bible features color-coded tabs, clear and easy-to-read story titles, and large chapter and verse numbers to help kids easily locate exactly what they’re looking for.

Understand it!

125 different featured stories welcome kids into a deeper relationship with the Word. These featured stories highlight specific passages, invite the reader to explain them in their own words, and encourage them to live out the core message found in the story!

Love it!

The core goal of biblical literacy is a love for God’s Word, and the core goal of The Catholic Children’s Bible is to welcome children into that love. Every feature, every page, is designed to encourage children to go deeper into the Word and to grow in love for God!

What people are saying . . .

The Catholic Children’s Bible is a must for younger children! We have given this bible to our First Eucharist students for the past 4 years and the excitement over the bible is shared by both parents and children. It is joyfully anticipated by all those entering second grade.

Thank you so much for FINALLY giving us a Children's Bible! I kept searching for something to have for my children and I found it last year at a Conference in our area (Bishop Ricard's Conference). I was so excited I texted my friends to see if they wanted one -two had them within days. I also help with a women's group at my church, and will be sure to share with them this beautiful resource.

The Catholic Children’s Bible from Saint Mary's Press is the first children’s Bible that color-codes all the books, making it easier to use! It is the Bible a child can grow up with!

I attended a First Communion meeting today as a catechist and parent. Your representative presented some of the elements of The Catholic Children's Bible. I told her we use it during our second grade Parish School of Religion class because the children love it. Our students discovered page 15 (Bookshelves) and taught each other the order of the books. An awesome experience!
