Joseph's Super Colorful Coat!

Imagine having a coat so special, it was made with many bright colors! That was Joseph's coat, a gift from his dad. But this special coat made his brothers jealous. They didn't like Joseph because his dad loved him the most and he had amazing dreams. These dreams showed Joseph being super important, which his brothers found hard to believe!

Lost and Found in Egypt!

Because his brothers were so angry, they sold Joseph to traders. He was taken all the way to Egypt, a faraway land. Even though he was sad, Joseph was a good person and worked hard. He ended up in the house of a very important man. Joseph learned a lot and became very wise, even helping people understand their dreams.

Dreams Come True in Pharaoh's Palace!

One day, the most important person in Egypt, the Pharaoh, had confusing dreams. Nobody could figure them out! But Joseph remembered he was good at understanding dreams. He told the Pharaoh what the dreams meant: there would be lots of food for seven years, and then no food for seven years. Joseph's smart idea saved Egypt!

Joseph Becomes a Big Boss!

Because Joseph was so smart and helped the Pharaoh, he was put in charge of all of Egypt! He made sure they stored lots of food during the good years. When the bad years came, people from all over, even Joseph's own brothers, came to Egypt for food. Joseph, who was once sold away, was now a powerful leader helping everyone.
