I especially wanted a large print Bible with Jesus' Words in red. I am delighted with what I got. The print is bold as well as large, and I can read it perfectly without my reading spectacles! The extras, of quality maps, a creative reference section, and a thumb index makes this Bible Edition extremely user-friendly and great value for money. Cross-references in the poetic texts are beside the verse; but with the prose texts are listed at the end of the paragragh. This is neater and therefore easier to read and doesn't distract the reader from the flow of the text. This is better than I anticipated!

Believe it or not, giant print can be anywhere from 10 point to 14 point font size. This is truly 14 point Giant font. You won't need to use your reading glasses for this Bible. And Zondervan's Bibles are always a great value.

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: NIV Holy Bible Giant Print Reference Edition, Thumb Indexed, Black Leather-Look (Leather Bound)

I bought this Bible for an older lady friend with deteriorating vision as a gift. SHe did not have a giant print Bible and it was the thing she wanted most. However, the Bible, for the price, seemed very cheap to me and I was reluctant to give it as a gift. The cover was one of the worst I've seen. The "leather look" is just a thin sheet of something over a thin piece of cardboard. The Bible was all right, but everything about it seemed of lesser quality than I would have expected for the price. I have returned it and purchased another one from the same publisher for slight less than half this price! It didn't have thumbtabs which are always nice, but it looks so much better and was a lovely shade of blue. Not recommended. Too expensive for the overall quality. You can do better.
