I think this is the first time I've ever seen Jesus depicted as a young child. Normally I only ever see Baby Jesus or Adult Jesus.

I (obviously) don't know much about the bible, but isn't there like a time skip between him being a baby and being a 30 year old? Like it's not really explained what he did in his teens and young adult years.

I googled searched and found at least 1 example.

Luke 2:41-52 New International Version

The Boy Jesus at the Temple

41 Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem for the Festival of the Passover. 42 When he was twelve years old, they went up to the festival, according to the custom. 43 After the festival was over, while his parents were returning home, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but they were unaware of it. 44 Thinking he was in their company, they traveled on for a day. Then they began looking for him among their relatives and friends. 45 When they did not find him, they went back to Jerusalem to look for him. 46 After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. 47 Everyone who heard him was amazed at his understanding and his answers. 48 When his parents saw him, they were astonished. His mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been anxiously searching for you.” 49 “Why were you searching for me?” he asked. “Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?”[a] 50 But they did not understand what he was saying to them. 51 Then he went down to Nazareth with them and was obedient to them. But his mother treasured all these things in her heart. 52 And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.

So like me when I was a kid, Jesus disappeared when he wasn't being watched like a hawk at the festival, or in my case, the grocery store. Thank God I didn't get forgotten lol

There are some apocryphal books (officially left out of the Bible) where Jesus does some strange things such as killing a child with magic and making a clay bird come alive. The latter is mentioned in the Quran 3.49 & 5.110

Where could I find online sources for left out Bible parts?
