The Queen Esther: Interactive Pop-Up Bible Story for Children

Queen Esther retells one of the Bible’s great stories of courage through three-dimensional pop-up scenes — the palace, the banquet, the moment Esther goes before the king uninvited. The storytelling is simple and the illustration does the work of holding a young child in the book.

What’s inside Queen Esther

Esther’s story is unusual among children’s Bible stories: the hero is a girl, the danger is political rather than physical, and the courage is quiet. This book keeps all three, which is why it is often the one parents of daughters reach for.

The pop-ups make the scenes visual for children who cannot yet picture a Persian court, and the text stays close enough to the biblical account that a child who later reads the book of Esther recognises it.

• Interactive 3D pop-up illustrations
• Simple, engaging retelling for young readers
• The story of Esther and Mordecai
• Lessons about courage, faith and God’s providence
• Suits family worship and Sabbath School
• Durable hardcover format
