From Reader Review Animals of the Bible: A Picture Book for online ebook Allison says It was an intriguing experience to read the very first Caldecott Medal winning title. Why did the committee choose this one? What else was published that year? I feel like the Caldecott Medal has evolved a great deal since this first winner. I was surprised at how static the illustrations seemed in this book-- most are contained in rectangles, and only a couple span two pages. There is no interaction with the text at all. On the other hand, I can see how these illustrations might have caught the eye of the committee. They're beautifully stylized with an Art Deco feel, especially in the human figures, and I can see the influence of Japanese prints in the composition and use of negative space in many of the illustrations. I think my favorite is the illustration that accompanies "As a Hen Gatherth Her Chickens." "God's Care of the Animals" also stands out to me. Sarah Leesman says I teach at a Catholic school so this book was a great choice for me. The pictures in this book are amazing and full of detail. I did not think that my students would be very interested in the pictures because they were not in color but the illustrator really brings depth and interest to the pictures through shading and detail. This book is broken up into stories from both the old and new testaments. The stories are placed chronologically the way that they would be found in the Bible. The author also tells us where we can find these stories in the Bible. Laura says This was the first book to receive the Randolph Caldecott Medal. It was published in 1937 and awarded in 1938. Historically speaking, this book speaks for the time period that it was written during and I don't doubt its specialness that it carried at that time. The text is straight out of the King James version Bible. It has thirty-one animals, pulled from various passages of scripture, with black and white pictures to accompany the biblical references. Although I don't feel that this is a book that has stood the test of time, it has been interesting to view it with a historical mindset. I must admit though, I was a tad shocked at the illustration that exposed a nude breasted Eve! Note: I loved how this book won the Caldecott Medal and it's basically just a book with passages from the Bible. The Bible always has and will be the most precious book to own and read. Unfortunately, I think the book's illustrations are it's weakness when viewed with a contemporary eye. PDF File: Animals of the Bible: A Picture 3 Book... Read and Download Ebook Animals of the Bible: A Picture Book... Book Concierge says This was the very first book to be awarded the Randolph Caldecott Medal for the “most distinguished American picture book for children.” Dorothy Lathrop’s black and white illustrations are wonderful. It is clear that she has experience drawing animals from real life. From the creation to Noah’s Ark, Daniel in the lion’s den, and on to the new testament, the drawings are detailed and life-like. Lathrop also took pains to include accurate depictions of the flora of the area depicted. So why only one star? The book was conceived and planned by Helen Dean Fish, who selected the texts used from the King James Bible. In some cases, the animal is but a small mention in the text (Abraham’s Ram or Jonah and the Great Fish). She did nothing to write these as child-friendly stories. I cannot imagine a child sitting still for any of these verses. If I needed a child’s picture book of Bible stories, I’d pick a different book. That’s really a pity, because Lathrup’s drawings are magnificent. I’d rate the illustrations 5***** - but I still wouldn’t recommend the book. Paul says This is the first book to win the Caldecott, awarded in 1938. It's interesting to see how the illustrated-book genre evolved from this point. This is certainly an illustrated book, but not of a story, since Animals of the Bible depicts selected Old and New Testament passages of the Bible that include or focus on an animal - that's the most innovative and compelling aspect. The book probably won't work with young children, especially since it uses the King James Version; if that translation is not an obstacle however, this may work as an alternate Bible story book. Lathrop's animals are well drawn and fell alive and full of motion and expression - the ram caught in the thicket at the time Abraham nearly sacrificed his son is one of the book's best. Her people don't fare so well - they are a bit stiff and two-dimensional, almost lifeless (some remind me of Erte's art deco style), which makes for an odd juxtaposition with the animals and flora - the sacrifice of Isaac doesn't fit this though, as his body and face express all the tension of the moment. 2.7 stars. Scott Pagel says 1.5 stars if rated without consideration to the time when it was published. 3 stars if I imagine myself as a child reading this book in 1937. I was pleased to find the very first Caldecott Medal winner in our library. The illustrations are accompanied by several passages from the King James Version of the Bible that mention animals. The selected passages are, for the most part, a good selection, but modern translations of the Bible are much more readable and understandable by children and adults alike. The black and white illustrations are interesting to me. The animals’ bodies, fur, horns, whiskers, etc have some nice detail and structure but their faces and eyes seem strangely human-like. The humans are all drawn as “Greek deities” with perfectly shaped bodies and faces. While the book would not hold up to scrutiny today, the illustrations are wonderful for the time in which PDF File: Animals of the Bible: A Picture 4 Book... Read and Download Ebook Animals of the Bible: A Picture Book... they were drawn and I can imagine that having such a book would be a special treasure for a child in 1937. It is a valuable use of time to spend some time with this piece of American literary culture and history. Kat says This book pointed out animals I forgot about. Lovely pictures. Kristin says With over 30 stories from the New and Old Testament of the Bible, these stories touch on Creation, Noah's Ark, Christmas and many more. While I agree with the beliefs from this book, I don't think I would use this book to tell these stories. This was probably my least favorite picture book that I have read from Caldecott winners as there were no colors and the illustrations seemed dull because of it. While I appreciated the drawings, it did not captivate me because of the lack of color. Similar to my generations’ reaction towards black and white movies, children would have similar responses to this book. There is a lack of consistency amongst images and the amount of text making it frustrating to go through. The picture book is large enough to be read in sections; however, there are not clear sections of division. Readers see illustrations for the next section while some sections have none. Calista says Hmmm. I would say, read this book if you want to read all the Caldecott medal books. Otherwise, let this book rest in the past. It is only to be recognized as part of this medal process. The book uses pages of text to tell bible story in the King James version. The pictures are black and white which is fine.
