A Playful Bible Book
A Curious Letter
from Nebuchadnezzar
A king. A strange dream. And a lesson he would never forget.
King Nebuchadnezzar ruled the mighty city of Babylon. But one night, a dream left him searching for answers.
Only Daniel could tell him what it meant.
Inspired by the extraordinary letter found in Daniel chapter 4, from the Bible, A Curious Letter from Nebuchadnezzar retells the story of a king who learns a lesson in pride.
Told in rhyme, closely following the Bible text, and brought to life with beautiful watercolour illustrations, this is a Bible story for children and grown-ups to discover together.
