The Most Important Story in the World

“Sit down in a comfy chair, invite your children to curl up in your lap, grab this book, and enjoy this engaging retelling of the whole story of the Bible! While most children's storybooks separate Bible stories, Maxine weaves them all together in a gently flowing rhyme that rolls off the tongue and into the hearts of listeners, inviting them to trust the good God writing this most important story ever!”

“With creative skill and theological awareness, Maxine McDonald has taken God’s grand narrative and delivered a succinct, rhythmic account of the greatest story ever told. In this impressive presentation, she accurately leads the reader from Genesis to Revelation—weaving through the canonical record while emphasizing the biblical text’s anchor points. But don’t be duped! This book is not merely for children. Perceptive adults will see God’s vibrant Word in its majestic grandeur. In doing so, the reader will understand McDonald’s claim: it truly is The Most Important Story in the World.”
