I bought the entire collection of this series! I started with the David story and was arogantly going to return it as I wanted to give my then 2 year old only complete bible truth. So I went to my Bible and realized that I was basing my knowledge on the watered down versions of Bible stories from my childhood. There it was (in the book of Samuel)I was amazed at how acurate the series was. (The only one that had a slight error in it was the video on the Nativity but only because of the wisemen's visit to baby Jesus not at the manger. He was already living in a home which is why King Herod killed all babies under the age of two... but I believe the makers wanted to get the full story in the 20-30 minutes of the video... smile) The entire series is a great success and my daughter, now nine, still enjoys them and is a mini Bible Scholar. The Pastors are baffled with her Bible acuracy and comprehension. My hat goes off for the entire series! God Bless

My son is watching this video right now. Laughing and giggling is coming from his room. This series is one of his favorites. (of course if Scooby Doo went back and met Jesus... oh forget it) Not a reading fan, I thought if I got him videos on bible stories he'd learn them. I was right. It worked. These videos are an excellent way to draw a child into the bible while he actually enjoys a fun and exciting that story he can feel a part of. They're a wonderful supplement to a child's biblical education.

I bought this video to watch with my 4 year old grandson. I had a hard enough time with the 'time travelers', (I'd prefer it to be accurate and not fanciful), but when David hit Goliath in the head and blood spurted, it was a little unnerving and a little too gory. Then shortly after it shows Goliath falling and blood is still going everywhere. I'm pretty sure him just falling would have been enough to get the point across. Probably will not try any more of this series.
