This beautiful hardback Bible storybook for 3+ year olds takes children on a journey from the Garden of Eden to God’s perfect new creation. It is a gospel presentation that focuses on the significance of the temple curtain. God said “because of your sin you can’t come in”, but the moment the curtain tore in two, everything changed.
Children will learn why Jesus died and rose again and why that’s the best news ever.
The coloring book, designed for 5+ year old kids, features 32 pages of coloring sheets based on the storybook. As kids color, they’ll be reminded of the message of the book. A useful homeschool resource.

Endorsement written for The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross Storybook
Faithful, theologically rich children's books are a rare treat in Christian publishing. Laferton has provided us one of the best little treatments of biblical theology available for parents to read to their children. The Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross not only teaches children stories in the Bible but the story of the Bible - one that culminates in the atoning work of Jesus Christ who gives broken sinners access to God. This book is a tremendous resource for parents and children who want to better understand the grand storyline of Scripture.

My grandchildren loved this book—and so did I. Both the pictures and the words have made the Bible's story of redemption clear and beautiful. This is a book that invites us in.

I am so excited about this book! It is colorful, engaging, and creative, and that's just the icing on the cake! Our children receive invitations to participate in many different stories—stories of who they are, their purpose, and what God is like. The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross is a brilliant re-telling of the one story that rules all other stories. I cannot commend this book highly enough. Read it to your children, give it to your neighbours, and talk about what it means to live in light of the fact that the curtain has been torn.

I think Carl Laferton has done an exceptional job of simplifying an essential truth which could easily come across as very complicated … He makes articulating doctrine seem like child’s play.... continue reading
Great for sharing more of God's story and the richness of Jesus' atoning sacrifice. It went brilliantly telling the story with PPT pics at Messy Church on Good Friday, enlightening regulars and inspiring newcomers to faith with God's deeper story
The Good Book does such a wonderful job with these books. They’re always biblical, with beautiful images and simple messaging for their audience. All my kids love them, I went ahead and got the whole series.
Such a lovely book that brings the Story of Salvation together for little ones. My children are 5 and 7, and really enjoyed listening to this.
This book beautifully explicates events that are difficult for many adults to understand! My two boys love this book and ask for me to read it to them often. We talk about the loving saving work Jesus was sent here to do and how much meaning our lives must have because He loves us so much. Thank you for this book and all the others like it in the series!
I know there are lots of good books in libraries for free. If I am going to spend money, though, I want to KEEP Christian books for my grandkids. I give them as gifts. I encourage other parents and grandparents to BUY engaging, uplifting, Biblically sound books as foundations of faith in our next generation.
My sister originally gifted me this book and I loved it! I shared it with my friend who also loved it! As a missionary in Japan who is friends with a translator, we hope this book can be translated into Japanese! Theologically accurate, engaging text, beautiful illustrations!
I love how this Bible storybook displays the parallels between creation, temple, and cross. It is a wonderful explanation of how Jesus fulfilled what was broken and how the entire biblical narrative comes full circle. Pictures are fun and intriguing for kids.
I read this book to children of different ages and cultures. They were all captivated and engaged by the combination of the storyline and the illustrations. The revealing of the truth about the tearing of the curtain was delightful to see in the children's eyes.
We absolutely love this collection,
My daughter gave one of these books to her first grade teacher and she loved it.
While The Garden, The Curtain and The Cross is a children's book, all ages can learn from the spiritual connections it makes between the Old and New Testaments. Carl Laferton has become my favorite author of Children's books.
