Daily Life in Bible Times
by Pamela Gaber

Aimed at children between 5 and 9, this book is excellent for families with children of all ages. It's meant to be interactive: parent or other adult asks, "How do they know that the people ate those foods?" (or any subject covered in text and pictures) and helps the child discover what was found in excavations that tells us about the food (seeds and bones). If families interact with this book together, it becomes an enjoyable interactive family activity. Much of the text is taken from the Bible.
