My Friend Jesus: Candle Bible for Toddlers by Juliet David, and illustrated by Helen Prole, is a wonderful introduction to the Bible for children ages 2 to 4 years. Simply retold with adorable illustrations, the story helps children relate to the Son of God by explaining that He was a child like them, who could be happy or sad just like they are. It also explains that Jesus was different from others, and that He taught people how to please God.
