Nephi Gets the Brass Plates

By Jill Johnson Hymas

The pictures illustrating this Book of Mormon story are all mixed up. Read 1 Nephi 3–4 [1 Ne. 3–4], number the pictures in the order that they should be, then color them. You might also like to mount them on lightweight cardboard, cut them out, punch holes along the top, put them in order, tie them with yarn or string to look like a book, and put them with your Sunday things.
