Summary: Just an update of the old one I had when I was a kid....
Comment: I bought one of these for each of my children. Basically it is biblical stories and highlights in comic book format(ALL pictures with text bubbles). THis is great and is what I like about this picture bible as opposed to other that I have seen and owned that simply try to dumb down the biblical language for kids and add a colorful picture every few pages -- they're ok, but in my opinion the comic book format is much better at holding the attention of kids...at least it was for me. I remember reading it during church when I was a kid and I have to tell you that this book as well as the "superbook" and "flying house" videos are what I grew up on and where I gained MOST of my initial knowledge and understanding of the Bible. Stories that I remember reading about from this book still stay with me to this day...people who have been reading the "grown up" bible look at me with blank expressions some times when I talk about stories that they don't even remember and have never really grasped just because they have never been able to see it in such vivid PICTURE format.

I recommend this book for ALL children...if you want them to grow up with a good foundation of knowlege of the bible then this is the book you want.

Summary: It's wonderful, but it ain't the Bible.
Comment: I am working with teenagers that have little understanding or comprehension of the Bible. This book was recommended to me as an easy read that would give a superficial view of Bible history without boring the kids senseless.

It is a very easy read, and quite interesting, but has some serious flaws which I'm having a hard time overlooking. Regularly it assigns attitudes and motives to God and various characters that are contrary to scripture, and ultimately changes the meaning and/or significance of many events. The importance of blood sacrifice is completely avoided, and blood does an amazing disappearing act in this book.

As a superficial overview of Bible stories, it's an entertaining read. But it is wrong for Bible study. With great trepidation I offered it to one of the teens with the expressed disclaimer that although based on Bible text, this is NOT the Bible, and NOT to be taken as scripture.

Summary: Picture Bible
Comment: This picture Bible is written in the comic strip method. It is true to the Bible and does not include any denomination's creed. I have bought several and given them mostly to children about 10 or older. It will be fine for younger children but I feel those above 10 will benefit very much.

Summary: La Biblia Ilustada
Comment: Excellent for children to learn about the Bible. I'm using it to learn Spanish better. I will bury the Word of God in my heart in two languages!
