The first book
Biblia Yangu ya Kwanza
Forty Bible stories in simple Kiswahili, from Creation to Jesus — for a child of three to seven and the parent reading with them.
- 40 stories — from Creation to Jesus
- Written for ages 3–7
- Kiswahili first, in language made for reading aloud together
Inside the book
- Forty stories, from Creation, Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Moses, David and Daniel through to the birth, ministry, death and resurrection of Jesus.
- Kiswahili written to be read aloud — short sentences, words a child already knows, a rhythm that works at bedtime.
- Every story carries a large hand-painted illustration, warm and set in an East African landscape.
- Three questions after each story: one to notice, one to understand, one about the child's own life.
- A short note for the parent where one helps — a conversation, not a test.
- Hard stories are told with the care the age needs, without frightening a child.
How each story runs

The story — a few pages, a large picture, and the Bible passage behind it.
2
Let's talk together — questions to ask each other, not questions to be marked.
3
For the parent — one practical note for whoever is reading.
