But the more I think about this Bible, the more I like it.
First, there are those verses to color. Many of the verses are the big ones that every Christian knows and every Christian parent wants their kids to know. Some of these verses have great calligraphy, some are not really colorable because they are more about design than fill-in-the space coloring. But most of them are words and pictures that one can color. My caveat would be to use colored pencils or crayons, NOT magic markers. I can see Sunday School or Bible Class teachers copying some of these pictures for their students' use in their classes. How easy it is to memorize a Bible verse if you're coloring it. Those who like coloring, will find coloring the page meditative.
Secondly, this is a large print Bible. It's not Extra large print but it is an easy read for kids and normal folks.
Thirdly, this Bible has generous columns on each page, with ruled lines, for note-taking. It's a pretty heavy Bible so --unless you're accustomed to carrying around large Bibles-- you might have to leave this at home and use it for family Bible study and note-taking.
This Bible comes with a strong heavy cloth cover and a ribbon placeholder. I have often wished that Zondervan would quit using the same all-purpose preface it uses in all its Bibles. This time around they added a neat "Letter from the Editor" which helps the reader feel that the reason for this Bible.
So, yeah, I'm liking this Bible a lot.
I was given this Bible free in exchange for a fair and honest review.
