Read an Excerpt

CHAPTER 1

Genesis 1-2

In the Beginning

God made everything. He made the warm sun to light up the day.

He made the moon to light up the night. He made all the pretty stars too.

God made puffy clouds and flowers and trees.

God made wiggly fishes. Splish! Splash!

God made big birds and little birds. Flap! Flap!

God made all the animals — puppies, kitties, bears, and many, many more. God made man. "Hello, Adam." Then God made woman. "Hello, Eve." God was happy!

CHAPTER 2

Genesis 2:8–3:19

Adam and Eve and the Sneaky Snake

Adam and Eve were God's friends. They lived in a beautiful garden. Sometimes God came to visit them.

There were many wonderful things to eat in the garden. But God said, "See that tree? Don't eat its fruit. You must stay away from it."

One day a s-s-s-sneaky s-s-s-snake came s-s-s-slithering up to Eve. "Hello, Eve, have you ta-s-s-s-sted this-s-s-s fruit?"

"Oh no!" Eve said. "God said it was a no-no." "Try it," whi-s-s-s-spered the snake. "It won't hurt you." So Eve ate a fruit. She gave Adam a bite. Mmmm, good!

Uh-oh! Something happened. Adam and Eve felt so bad that they hid. They knew they had made a wrong choice.

God came to visit. "Adam, Eve, where are you? Why are you hiding? Did you eat fruit from the tree?" God asked. "Yes," they said. God was very sad. "Out you go," God said. "You can't live in the garden anymore."
