The title literally translates to "The Bible told for big and small" and is a retelling of the Bible by a famous Danish story teller. She has an amazing talent for story-telling and it was extremely well done. Many of the old tales I suddenly saw in a completely different light, from the new way of telling it, and even the most well-known stories (like the Christmas and the Easter gospel) affected me more strongly than ever before. Gorgeous book.

The illustrations included are a bit 'over the top' at times, but then I've never been a huge fan of that genre of paintings.
