5.0 out of 5 stars
A great start for younger people
This book, and its companion volume, are great additions to anyone's library. Children are drawn to comic books, and it never hurts to encourage kids to read on their own. The stories are a bit simplified, but that's actually a plus. The stories stick to the main point, and anyone interested in the stories after reading this can go to a standard bible for further...

Not our favorite...there is better stuff out there!

This review is from: Picture Stories from the Bible: The New Testament in Full-Color Comic-Strip Form (Comic-Book Bible Series Vol 2) (Hardcover)
This book, and its companion volume, are great additions to anyone's library. Children are drawn to comic books, and it never hurts to encourage kids to read on their own. The stories are a bit simplified, but that's actually a plus. The stories stick to the main point, and anyone interested in the stories after reading this can go to a standard bible for further information. For those who do not "support" the bible, the stories are still captivating, filled with drama, heroes and villains, adventure and challenges. Parents may want to scan the books before letting their children read them so they can see what's inside, but these stories are harmless entertainment and the children may end up better people for reading them.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Picture Stories from the Bible: The New Testament in Full-Color Comic-Strip Form (Comic-Book Bible Series Vol 2) (Hardcover)
We bought Picture Stories from the Bible along with the Comic Book Bible, and the Picture Bible. Our favorite out of the three was the Picture Bible. Feels nice, looks nice, glossy pages, etc. Also, very comprehensive representation of the Bible. We are giving it to kids aged 6-9 for Christmas, and as an adult, I also enjoy reading it. Amazon's price is a real bargain. The Comic Book Bible was okay, more for the younger set and early readers. Picture Stories from the Bible seemed out-dated and was just not as impressive to us. Also, it showed more gruesome details such as Judas hanging from a tree, and blood on Jesus, both of which were unnecessary.
