I got the Action Bible for my birthday and have already read it twice. It is a great book. It has many different Bible stories such as the story of Jesus, Goliath, and over 200 others. This book is just like a comic book. The art was done by a Marvel and DC Comic artist so I think boys would love it and learn from it. I also think girls would like it (if she likes comic books).
Personal Opinion.
I liked this book because it's the Bible turned into a comic book. Who wouldn't like that!? What I didn't like was that it didn't explain things in detail like the Bible does. This book is good for ages 9 and up.

Cool! My kids have a new testament bible that is a comic, too, but it actually contains all of the words of the real new testament (I can't remember what version it is, though!)... http://www.amazon.com/The-Illustrated-Bible-Complete-Testament/dp/1400308313/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
ReplyDeleteYours looks better in a couple of ways- it has stories from the Old Testament, too, and the graphics are "spiffier". ;)
