Solomon, the Wisest King: A Kids Bible Story from 1 Kings About Asking God for Wisdom, Building Temple, and Prophet Elijah. KJV Verses Included. Ages 3-8

A young man is handed a whole country and has no idea what to do with it.God asks Solomon what he wants. He could have said gold, or a long life, or an army nobody could beat. Instead he asks for a listening heart, so he can tell right from wrong for the people who trust him. What follows is a court case settled by a clever question, a temple built out of cedar and gold, visitors arriving from far away just to hear him talk, and one slow drift away from the God who gave him everything. Then a prophet named Elijah shows up, is fed breakfast by birds, and hears God in the smallest voice of all.This is the eleventh book in KJV Bible Adventures for Kids, a set of 66 square picture books, one for every book of the King James Bible, read in order from Genesis to Revelation.Inside this book: - Fourteen full-colour illustrated spreads, gentle and warm for ages 3 to 8- A featured King James Version verse, set apart with its reference- A "Where Are We in the Bible?" page so children can see where 1 Kings sits- Three things we learned, three questions to talk about, and words to know- A short bedtime prayer, four lines long- A "Read It Yourself" page of KJV passages for readers aged 8 to 12Big ideas are kept small enough to carry.
