At a breakneck pace, this volume covers the myriad stories in Numbers, Joshua, Judges and Ruth. It begins with the last days of Moses and the installation of Joshua as Israel's leader and moves through Joshua's campaigns and conquest of the Holy Land, through many of the judges (Othniel, Ehud, Shamgar, Deborah, Gideon, Jephthah, Samson) and the Benjamite rebellion, and ends with the story of Ruth. Comically but respectfully presented, but in no way designed as a replacement for actual Bible reading, this series illustrates both well-known and lesser-known stories from the Bible in an engaging and amusing way. Recommended for ages 9 to 11.
