Get the heads up on some scaredy-cat spies and find out about a host of unusual dynamic double acts. Using colourful cartoons and his own fun style of storytelling, Andy Robb brings fifty more Bible stories to life. In every one, he leaves you with a cliff hanger and a question – but don’t worry, he tells you where to look in your Bible to find out how the stories end!

The walls wobbled and lifted . . . until with a CRASH and a splash the house built on sand fell down flat!"
