The Old Testament is part of the Bible, which is a special book for people who believe in God. The Old Testament tells us stories about long ago and the people who lived then. It's a very important part of Christianity, because it tells us things that happened to God's people before Jesus was born. It includes stories like Adam and Eve, Noah, and Moses. It also includes the laws God gave to help people know how to live, and lots of poetry and songs of praise.
