Mostly it was Bible-lite with a gloss over on details (why did the crowd in Sodom want Lot to hand over his angel visitors) to pure fantasy (Ninja angels???). I remember having a better book as a child with various Bible stories.

Bible-lite is right. I thought “Ninja Angel” was amusing, and also got a chuckle out of how PC-ism crept into the story with black and Asian angels. I’ll try to watch more but I don’t hold out high hopes for it.

I remember having a better book as a child with various Bible stories.

When I was a kid I had this AWESOME book of Bible stories done up in Classic Comics style, that was a hand-me-down from my brother's childhood. When he had his son many years later, we both looked high and low for another copy of that book and could not find it anywhere.

Then, the week after my nephew graduated high school I wsa in a doctor's office, and there on the table was a copy of the book, with a flyer inside with a website for the publisher. At that point I had no need for the book anymore but I ordered it anyway, mainly because I was so annoyed I had not been able to find it when I wanted one.

Now my nephew has a baby girl of his own, and I know just what somebody is getting for her fourth birthday!
