New Life Good News Bible (GNB): Perfect for young adults - Tapa dura

‘I like the fact that the GNB is set out in the traditional style of a Bible, preparing children to use other versions as they grow up, which in the classroom situation is ideal when the children can be guided through it.’
Mr N. Hawker, Deputy Head, Polwhele House School, Cornwall

‘Too many people read the Bible with a severe face, but I say no, the Bible is not that. The Bible is life, and it is wonderful!’ – Annie Vallotton, Illustrator.
