New International Reader's Version

New International Reader's Version Synopsis

Volume 3 of a 4-book series of The Books of the Bible designed for kids ages 8-10.

The NIrV, The Books of the Bible for Kids, The Writings is an abridgement of the Bible that strips the Bible text of its chapter and verse numbers, headings, and special formatting so that it's easier to read and accessible to all. The translation used is the easy-to-read New International Reader's Version (NIrV) ideal for early readers of the Bible.

Each of the 4 volumes in this series is broken down into an 8-week reading plan and includes a daily reading and questions for discussion perfect for classroom or small group use. With wide margins, shorter lines, a large 12-point font size, and engaging illustrations, these books are designed especially for developing readers.

In the third book, The Writings, kids will study the poetry, wisdom writings, and history of the Bible.

This volume includes Scripture portions from:

• Psalms
• Lamentations
• Song of Songs
• Proverbs
• Ecclesiastes
• Job
• Chronicles
• Ezra
• Nehemiah
• Esther
• Daniel

The other 3 volumes in this series are:

• NIrV, The Books of the Bible: Covenant History: Discover the Beginnings of God's People
• NIrV, The Books of the Bible: The Prophets: Listen to God's Messenger's Tell about Hope and Truth
• NIrV, The Books of the Bible: New Testament: Read the Story of Jesus, His Church, and His Return

The New International Reader's Version is based on the bestselling New International Version, written for a third-grade reading level-among the lowest reading level of any Bible translation available. Like the NIV, the NIrV achieves great accuracy through equal rigor to the original languages and today's English. For over 30 years, the NIrV has made the Bible understandable for children and anyone who would benefit from easier-to-read language.
