Seek and Find: New Testament Bible Stories

Laura Wifler

"Seek and Find New Testament" is such a fun way to engage your kids with the stories of Jesus. It’s the type of book you’ll find your kids pulling off the bookshelf on their own to study and discover!

This charming and interactive book teaches not only counting and Bible stories, it clearly points to Jesus as the ONE our children can trust and need.

“Loved the books we received! They are Christmas Gifts!”

Great service - needs to return a book and exchange it. Very accommodating and friendly!

“Cracking book!”

We just got given this and our 3 year old absolutely loves it. He engages with the short stories and has spent hours looking at all the fun illustrations. It’s a big hit, thank you!

“Perfect for preschool!”

My kids (ages 3 and 4) love these books! Every time we pick them up I end up telling them each of the Bible stories in more detail per their enthusiastic request. They love the seek and find challenge and it’s great counting practice for them too! Highly recommend!

“Jesus Is at the heart of this outstanding New Testament Bible Book”

Seek and Find: New Testament is an eye catching, fun and faithful retelling of Bible Stories.

Sarah and André are the husband and wife creative duo behind this wonderful book. Each word and every illustration has clearly been a labour of love to get the message of Jesus and his kingdom into the minds and hearts of the youngest and oldest readers. They have succeeded magnificently.

I have made sure all the kids in my life have a copy, it’s that good, I recommend you do the same.

“Jesus-centered, fun, and educational”

My kids love this book! I love this book! It's a fantastic way to teach children stories from the Bible in a fun and engaging way. Each 2 page spread includes wonderfully detailed pictures with Biblically accurate skin-tones, bright colors, and fun elements. There are 10 sets of items to find on each spread corresponding to the numbers 1-10. Scripture references from the gospels are included to read alongside the short summary in the book. You can use this book to teach children Bible stories, number recognition, patience (while looking for the hidden details), but my absolute most favorite part of this book is that it is saturated with a focus on JESUS! Each story is centered around an attribute of Jesus. The concluding sentence on each page highlights Jesus. The #1 item on each page to find is Jesus. It's all focused around Jesus, who He is, and what He has done. I LOVE that.

“Fun and Educational!”

I bought the Seek and Find OT book for my youngest daughter when it came out in May 2020. She is 3.5 years old now and still loves that book. I bought her this New Testament edition for Christmas and she was thrilled! The illustrations are fabulous and the passages are great to help teach popular stories about Jesus for her age. Thankful for The Good Book Company publishing activity books like this one!

“We Love this Book”

My littles love these books so much. As soon as the package came, they swiped the book, and played quietly together for an hour, looking for all the items. My kids are pretty loud, so quiet play is a miracle. Love that in all the fun, this book is teaching them about Jesus

“A favorite gift idea for 2-5s!”

I was so eager to receive this copy of the New Testament Seek and Find book because we’ve loved our Old Testament one so much. We like the over-sized board book format for starters. There’s plenty to look at on each brightly-colored action-filled spread--and it is sturdy for tiny readers.

The book includes eight stories, including the birth of Jesus, Zacchaeus, the last supper, and of course, the Resurrection. Each page is filled with “Seek and Find” illustrations, the Scripture reference, a short summary of the story and a one-sentence take-away point.

I love the take-aways, because they are short and it’s easy to remember and repeat them even when we’re just talking throughout the day. Truths like, “We can always trust Jesus” and “YOU are special and important to Jesus”.

Suggested for ages 2-5. This makes a wonderful engaging faith-based gift for Christmas. Pack it up with the Seek and Find Old Testament Stories book and give the set!

(Thanks to The Good Book Company for gifting me a copy for review.)

“Great Seek-and-Find Book!”

This board book features eight double-page spreads with vivid depictions of scenes from the New Testament. Sarah Parker introduces each story in a brief paragraph, and includes the source reference to each Bible passage. The illustrations from Andre Parker visualize the story and includes lots of little details for kids to search for and find based on the sidebar. This book will appeal to kids who like seek and find books, and could be great for siblings to work on together. I know that I would have enjoyed this when I was a child, since my sister and I loved looking for the hidden ladybugs in the illustrations of a devotional book from our childhood.

"Seek and Find: New Testament Bible Stories" does not retell the stories in detail, so if someone is looking for a book with more information about each narrative, this won't be their first choice. However, this is a great book to supplement family readings of each Bible story, or for kids who are already very familiar with the material. The illustrations include both historically accurate and whimsical details, but they never take liberties with the source material, and the characters reflect a variety of different skin tones, according to their real-life ethnic backgrounds.

This can be a fun gift book for kids, can be a supplement to family devotions, and would be a good activity book for a Sunday school or church preschool environment. It is also complex enough that it is not just for very young children. Younger kids can focus on the elements that are easier to find, while older kids will be able to find more and can do some of the additional challenges described inside the front covers. This is a great seek-and-find book that explores the story of Jesus in a simple and appealing way, and I would definitely recommend it.
