This book is done in comic book format. It's a very large-format book, with big pages that have plenty of room for art. On each page, angels and other curious characters hover and make comments on the action in the story, like a cartoon Greek chorus. It has 11 Bible stories, including "God's Creations," "The Garden of Eden," "Noah's Ark," "Abraham and Isaac," "Joseph and His Fabulous Robe," "The Story of Moses," "The Battle of Jericho," "Samson and Delilah," "David and Goliath," "Daniel and the Lion's Den," and "Jonah and the Great Fish." Each story has beautiful, colorful cartoons with cartoon characters for all the Bible personalities in these stories, including God. The text under the frames of the pictures tells the story, and the characters make their own candid remarks in the picture in cartoon style. All the stories are short, some only two pages long--perfect for a short bedtime story. This is a nice, big picture book to add to your collection--very good for children who prefer the comic format to a storybook with less pictures. In this book, every single page is covered with a picture!
