This is No Comic Book
While out shopping with my wife, I found on a closeout shelf, this New Testament Bible from ICB. (I paid a lot more for it at the store than you can buy it for here.) The shiny hard cover with the comic book bubble text, over frame by frame realistic images, caught my eye. So I picked it up to have a closer look.
Thinking that it would be another "Bible comic book" for kids, with the story of Christ told in a "story" format, and not, biblical chapter and verse, I was shocked to find that they used the actual text of the bible with the illustrations as a backdrop. This format kind of makes it a Bible Movie Book. A cartoon Bible if you will...
Yes, this book is made with kids in mind. Not a 40 year old Deacon. But I am so glad that I found it, because I have to admit, I have never enjoyed the effort it takes to read the Bible. But in this format, I no longer have to force myself to read it, I enjoy it, I even look forward to reading it.

Ever wonder why kids find it so hard to read and remember little black words on a white page? Probably because most children (and adults) are visual learners. We learn better through the use of pictures. This innovative Gospel of John uses Bible text that illustrates the ACTUAL scriptures (not a re-telling, or paraphrase!), complete with dialogue boxes to show who is speaking so kids can follow the story and action. It sets the scene for them. This helps children not only read the Bible, but helps them immediately understand what is going on, learn it, and remember it better. The old saying "a picture is worth a thousand words" now rings truer than ever. By, Neely Publishing
