THE BIGGEST STORY
A CASE STUDY
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Working on The Biggest Story has been one of the most meaningful and creatively fulfilling projects of our career. From the start, we knew this wasn’t just another illustration job—it was an opportunity to help visually shape a gospel-centered narrative for kids and families around the world. We poured everything into the art direction, crafting images that felt timeless yet fresh. Watching it connect with so many readers—and seeing it grow into a full suite of books, devotionals, curriculum, and more—has been incredibly rewarding. We’re honored to be part of something that continues to spark wonder, truth, and joy in so many homes.

Working with Don on The Biggest Story suite of resources has been one of the real highlights of my career. This ambitious, years-long project required a massive amount of dedication. Witnessing Don's creativity and skill in bringing the Bible's narrative to life with completely original, timeless, rich, colorful, and imaginative artwork has been a great privilege. His commitment to excellence and giftedness has resulted in a work that has profoundly blessed our company. I am deeply grateful for Don's generosity, kindness, friendship, and partnership over the years.

BIBLE STORYBOOK
What started as The Biggest Story Bible Storybook has since grown into an entire ecosystem of books and resources—devotionals, board books, memory verse cards, curriculum, and more. Each new piece builds on the foundation of the original, offering families even more ways to engage with Scripture together.
CURRICULUM
The Biggest Story Curriculum builds on the Bible Storybook project, turning its 104 stories into full lessons for kids K–5. With teaching guides, crafts, and activities, it brings the illustrations and gospel message to life in classrooms, churches, and homes.
Don Clark brings an exceptional blend of artistic skill, conceptual thinking, and attention to detail to every project. He is a master craftsman and a true joy to work with. The hundreds of illustrations he has created for The Biggest Story set a new standard for children's Bible artwork and bring a delightful sense of wonder to familiar stories. With every new project we work on together, I eagerly anticipate what he will create, and each time, my expectations are not only met but completely exceeded.
