One memorable retelling concerned the grumbling and confusion in Israel in Exod 17.1-7 over the lack of suitable drinking water. Narration came by way of the night-time vantage point of a flea on the back of a camel (mixed multitude crowd, you know). Since the flea had details, plenty of questions, but little comprehension, I would ask the children to evaluate the variegated human and divine activities. As I recall, it took several evenings of cliff-hanging tales to finish the shocking story. When our children were very young I would often tell Bible incidents in a “I was there” mode.
