Product Description
Review
"This is a stunning achievement. The comic strip format will undoubtedly attract thousands of children, boys in particular, who would otherwise never have touched the Good Book."
Product Description
The Bible is a unique narrative of origins and cosmic powers; of the ageless battle between good and evil; of human potential and human treachery - the very stuff that graphic novels are made of.

Format:Paperback
This is a fantastic book - the entire bible in a graphic novel format! We are not religious but my daughter was interested in the bible stories. I tried a few normal kids bibles but they weren't successful. I then found this on an amazon search - this book is amazing - each part of the bible is beautifully illustrated in full colour in the style of a marvel magazine or graphic book. The text is succinct and subtle. The pages are fairly thin - a lot of pages are packed in as the narrative covers the entire bible. I buy a lot of managa and graphic novels for my children, they are usually very expensive for a smallish book, but this is about triple the volume of those and about half the price. It really looks like a labour of love on the part of the authors/illustrators. My daughter often has a read of this - great for reluctant readers too and of course the bible promotes lots of discussion.
The illustrations are in a very realistic style (see the front cover), they are not cartoonish or disrepectful. This is not a text for infant school children but for older primary and secondary pupils. It must be a wonderful aid for RS teachers and church schools everywhere.

This comic book style of the Bible is really excellent. The pictures really bring to life the stories, good for children and adults although maybe best targeted at 6-12 yr olds. This is the third time I've purchased this, two of these were as baptism gifts. The pictures are colourful enough to entertain toddlers at story time, then when they are older they can read it themselves. Also provides a good overview of the Bible's major stories from start to finish.

Format:Paperback
Children love the 'comic' style of this Bible and will happily sit down to read it for fun. Good for all children over 8yrs even those who have educational difficulties. The drawings could be descibed as 'fierce' so not recommended for little children. It might give them bad dreams!!

Is it good?
I am writing this to warn you to be careful when ordering this from Amazon as I can't get a response from Customer Service. I needed this book for a Confirmation with a week to go. Read more
