Bob Hartman tells tales like no other! A collection of little-known and unusually told Bible stories for younger readers.

Bob Hartman, well-known for his storytelling talents is tackling Bible stories again! Following his popular Storyteller series and his Unauthorized Versions, Bob is retelling stories for a younger audience, but with the same mischievous slant that made the Unauthorized Versions so much fun. Lesser known tales are collected together and packed with dialogue and funny details which are set off by Woody Fox's jaunty line illustrations.

Bob Hartman is a performance storyteller par excellence. He has been entertaining audiences on both sides of the Atlantic for over 15 years with his books and performances, which bring together retellings of Bible stories and traditional tales from around the world with his own imaginative stories. His books are full of humour and insight, whilst his storytelling sessions are exciting, engaging, dynamic - and above all, interactive! He is well-known for his hugely popular Lion Storyteller books, the Telling the Bible series and the highly acclaimed picture books The Wolf Who Cried Boy, Dinner in the Lions' Den and The Three Billy Goats' Stuff. Woody Fox has been an illustrator for 22 years, inventing pictures for children's books, card ranges and children's clothing designs. He has a number of styles using acrylics, ink and watercolours and also illustrates in black and white (including the highly successful "Astrosaurs" series!). As well as illustrating, Woody also makes willow sculptures, and runs children's workshops in libraries and local schools.
