My thoughts for all three: These were written very well. I enjoyed reading these three BELIEVE and thought that the editor did a good job merging Old and New Testament stories together into one lesson. I read these as part of my homeschooling Bible classes, and I like how the verses were included and how they tied in the stories with what we believe, and how we are to serve, live, act, etc. I highly recommend these books for youth or tween small groups, Bible story times, church libraries, homeschool parents and Christian schools.  Great resource.
