The Story of Jesus

Originally written by pioneer poetess Eliza R. Snow in 1867 for the Juvenile Instructor, this classic children's history recounts the birth, ministry, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ in warm, accessible prose. Uniquely, it also tells of the signs among the Nephites and Christ's appearance to the people on the American continent. Reprinted in larger, easy-to-read type, this edition invites children in these latter days to learn about their Savior and begin the habit of studying the scriptures while young.

• Written by beloved pioneer poetess Eliza R. Snow—'Zion's Poetess'—in 1867 and now in large, kid-friendly print
• One of the few children's life-of-Christ books that includes His appearance to the Nephites in the Book of Mormon
• A window into how early Latter-day Saints understood and taught the gospel to their children
• Perfect for building the habit of scripture study in young children

“The purpose of reprinting The History of Jesus was to make this story available in larger print, making it easier for children to read, so that the children in these latter days might get into the habit of studying the scriptures while they are young, and that they might read and know about the life of Jesus Christ, Our Savior.”

Perfect for an LDS parent or grandparent who wants to read a reverent, scripture-based life of Jesus to young children, including His Book of Mormon ministry.
