The Miracles of Jesus Picture Book Details

PinBook: The Miracles of Jesus

Author: Tomie dePaola

Illustrator: Tomie dePaola

The Miracles of Jesus

Inspired by Romanesque art, this book is still undeniably Tomie dePaola. Twelve of Jesus’ miracles are retold and illustrated. The retellings stay true to Biblical accounts and are accompanied by dePaola’s eye-catching, signature artwork.

My favorite is the illustration of The Calming of the Storm with its swirling blue waves. In a nod to monk-scribes from throughout history, dePaola ends the book with a monk hard at work. Wonderful conversation piece.

The Miracles of Jesus Homeschool Activities

#1 – Tomie dePaola has an extensive selection of picture books of Bible stories and saints. All of these are a treat.

#2 – Miracles of Jesus coloring pages are perfect for a restful Sunday afternoon in front of the fireplace.

#3 – Want a more elaborate option? There are endless crafts and object lessons to illustrate the miracles. You could easily read one miracle a week and find an activity to go along with each one for a brief Bible lesson for homeschool or preschool at home.
