Just in Time for Valentine's day--Bible Stories that end with a hug!

Tyndale Kids has released a new book for children called Bible Stories that end with a hug! by Stephen Elkins and illustrated by Simon Taylor-Kielty.  Each two page spread includes a Bible story that has been paraphrased, and a few questions with the answers.  Each story ends with hug time.  Stories that are included are from the Old and New Testaments.  The age level for this book is 3 and up.
I think that the stories are simple enough for a three year old to get the main concept the author is going for in the Bible story.  I like how each story ends with a hug time.  For example, the first Bible story is called "In the Beginning" from Genesis 1.  At the end of the story, it says, "Give the one made by God...a great big hug!"  The illustrations are really cute and this would be a great gift for a young child for Valentine's day or any time.

**I received this book free from Tyndale House in exchange for an honest review.  All opinions are my own.
