That Bible is beautiful!!! It is rare to find a Children's Bible I don't hate in some way, haha. I recently got this one, though, and I do love it as well, but I'm definitely going to snag the ones you mentioned as soon as I can find them... they are unavailable on all my regular sites! Probably because of this email :) The illustrations in this bible are also icon-style paintings. https://www.amazon.com/Orthodox-Childrens-Illustrated-American-Society/dp/1585168270

Just snagged that Bible off ThriftBooks! I unfortunately have a collection of children's Bibles collecting dust, and one that I use (the DK Illustrated) I'm only okay with. It's merit is that it lists the biblical reference for each story, and I have enough biblical knowledge to change details on the fly if I note something is wrong. But gosh, that's annoying, I don't want to hand it to my reading son, and also, I know I'm missing stuff. So thank you for the recommendation, and yes, pull every string you have to get it back in print!
