Except archaeological evidence in support of Old an New Testaments has been uncovered verifying it.
If you ever get to visit the British Museum in London, say hi to the black obelisk of Shalmaneser III, which just happens to have a picture of Jehu, king of Israel bringing tribute, a picture we have of an Israelite king mentioned in the Bible.
Next visit the Hittite collection, a people the Bible spoke about, but sceptics decided never existed, until we found their civilisation.
Check out the book Pharaohs and Kings by Dr David Roal, who found an anomaly in Egyptian dating, and as a by product found what could be a statue of Joseph, who became Pharaohs right hand man
Next take a look at the work of Dr William Ramsey, who set out to prove Luke wrong, the Luke who wrote the gospel and Acts. He only ended up being converted because of Luke's accuracy.
They even found the pool which was mentioned in John's gospel where the man lay for 35 years.
Hardly a contender for being a book of fairy tales.
