Join Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber, and all your Veggie Tales friends as they share twenty favorite Bible stories. Based on the popular videos, this Bible storybook combines Veggie Tales humor with great lessons. Kids will love reading these classic Veggie stories and Scripture selections that go along with them from the New International Readers Version (NIrV---The NIV for Kids!) Have fun while learning Bible stories and the important message each one brings. Sunday morning values, Saturday morning fun!

Each chapter begins with a "counter-top" introduction. Bob and Larry describe a current problem then lead into the Veggie story. Now we know Goliath was not really a giant pickle, so immediately after the story, the book presents the real Bible story with selections taken directly from New International Reader's Version of Scripture. Bob and Larry return "counter-top" to wrap up the application with a memory verse.
