It was the gift of creativity. And at seven years old, she made her first illustration, Prince Charming dancing with Cinderella! And at sixteen years of age she began a five years Art College Degree Course. This led to a career in teaching, and then as a designer and sculptor for the ceramic industry. She became quite well known in the past for her exquisite porcelain figurines. But after coming to a personal faith in Jesus as her Saviour, she used her God-given gift for Him. Over many years she created a series of illustrated Bible Stories for children. And this book, Jesus the Messiah, is the story of the One she loves. May anyone who reads it also know and love Him.
Here is a beautifully illustrated Bible storybook that speaks of humankind being created and valued. It emphasizes that God is light, but that people chose to sin and live in darkness. Much of the wording is taken directly from Scripture. The stories include: The seven days of Creation Adam and Eve created Adam and Eve deceived by the snake Adam and Eve cast from the Garden Cain and Abel Noah and the flood. The Tower of Babel Abraham is chosen Adam and Eve lived in God's light and peaceful garden until they rebelled against Him and were forced to leave their perfect home. Well, one sin led to another and another. In time, the world became a dark and evil place. Then God sent a great flood to destroy all life on earth. But Noah, his family, and two of every kind of animal, were saved. Time passed, and once again, people chose to live in darkness. So God called Abraham, to be the father of a new nation. A nation that would love God and live in His light. ABOUT THE AUTHOR AND ILLUSTRATOR: Pauline Shone has written and illustrated 18 Children's Bible Stories, published and distributed by Authentic Media in Asia. In the Beginning, is her first, full color children's book for Olive Press. Pauline lives in England. She has a son and a daughter, and four grandchildren REVIEWS: Good books help us to think. Children need to know the importance of thinking God's way rather than the world's way. They need to know how their decisions, both good and bad, will affect their lives just like Adam & Eve's, Cain's, and other Bible characters. This book shows God's holiness and mercy, right from the beginning. Pauline quotes Scripture, which is so important as many parents today think the Bible is obsolete and outdated. The beautiful illustrations will remain in the children's minds for years to come. Lois Rykse, married to Mel, and great grandmother to 33 children Michigan, USA As a friend and former colleague of Pauline, I am honoured to be writing a review of In The Beginning. Pauline has captured the Biblical content along with such beautiful illustrations, bringing it alive for the child reader or like me the Dad reading it with his children. Pauline is a gifted author putting pictures into words and words into pictures. My daughter just loves her books and it thrills me to see children excited about the Word of God. In this book children are shown (and we adults reminded) how it all began, and what an awesome God we have. Colin A McFarland, married to Kicki, father of two children Northern Ireland (formerly lived in Israel) As a grandparent and retired primary school teacher, in both the Uk and Spain. I find this book of Pauline Shone's an excellent way of introducing young people to the often complex stories of the Old Testament, particularly in our multi faith world. They are easy to read or "show and tell" due to the charming and detailed illustrations, which open up opportunities to extend children's vocabularies and verbal expression. I heartily recommend it.
