5.0 out of 5 stars Now that's large print!, May 8, 2007

This review is from: HOLY BIBLE Extra Large Print -KJV (Paperback)

Most of the large print Bibles that I have looked at,top the font scales at 11 or 12. However, this bible is amazing. The print is probably a 16 font and very readable for even people with significant vision loss. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys the King James Version over the New International version like I do. It is a large book, a little on the heavy side, but the size of the print makes all the difference to some of us, me included.

5.0 out of 5 stars ENORMOUS PRINT, August 9, 2007

This review is from: HOLY BIBLE Extra Large Print -KJV (Paperback)

The font is HUGE and wonderful for vision immpaired. Only problem - weight! This is heavy. It would be great if they could split the bible into Old and New Testament at the very least, or into 3 would be the best. Because the font size it expanded the weight enormously despite using regular thin Bible pages. This was a gift for a multiply handicapped person and it's so heavy she's thinking about tearing the Bible since we cannot find a book rebinder to split it up. That's my only concern about this item, besides that IT'S AWESOME!
