Rating: - Picture Bible
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.

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!
Rating: - It's a comic book!
I buy these bibles by the case as an evangeliziing tool - to give to people as gifts. Last week I heard a teenage girl light up in her group of friends expressing joy that this bible was a comic book - this made the others wish they too had listened and engaged in thoughtful discussion about the meaning of life. Of all the comic book like bible books, I like this one the best because it is very detailed and sticks to the words of the bible. It's good for all ages - helps people read the bible who otherwise would not, and learn the life lessons through biblical stories.
Rating: - Excellent Bible beginner for Children
My parents purchased a Picture Bible for me in the early 1980's when I was a child. It truly made the bible stories come alive to me from a child's perspective. As a child it is sometimes difficult to visualize all the details within the a story of the bible but, the picture bible presents the stories in a pictorial comic-book layout that really brings it to life makeing it fun to read. I just purchased this picture bible for my daughther. It appears to be a reprint of the one I read years ago as a child. I would highly recommend it.

My Godson and his mother are really pleased with this Bible. It provides a good teaching tool, that is easier to follow than the King James version of the Bible. It is colorfully illustrated, and very easy to read.
