The Action Bible: Faith in Action edition by Sergio Cariello from David C Cook is a vibrantly illustrated Bible aimed at the nine to eleven year old age range--but I think it will catch readers both older and younger. 

The Action Bible: Faith in Action edition is illustrated with bright vibrant comic book style illustrations. I brings the Bible to life for this age group and you can feel the energy leaping off of the pages, in my opinion. There are 230 spiritually-transformative Bible stories. A Faith in Action Badge corresponds with each story with one of seven biblical attributes: courage, faith, hope, love, service, trust, and wisdom. 

Along with the print book, there are discoverable QR codes throughout the text, which can be used to further bring the Bible to life and learn more. This engaging on-line content includes videos, games, digital Scripture index, prayers, Bible facts, devotions, playlists, reading plans, interactive maps, Bible study sessions, and more.

If you don't know who he is, Sergio Cariello's vibrant illustrations are influenced by his illustrious background in Marvel Comics and DC Comics. How cool is that? They breathe an unparalleled vibrancy into the biblical narratives. Originating from Brazil, Cariello infuses each page with a dynamic energy that propels every tale into a visual spectacle, captivating readers of all ages in an awe-inspiring storytelling extravaganza.

This is a really cool Bible, in my opinion, especially to engage young boys like when my son was this age. I know he would have enjoyed this Bible and it would have kept him engaged and interested.

This hardcover Bible is  832 pages long and includes a reading challenge chart spurs young readers on to earn a Faith in Action Title. It measures close to 7 by ten inches and is 1 1/2 inches thick. It is a big enough book to be interesting and yet and easy size to carry or leave on the nightstand. It releases on February 6, 2024.

I received a digital copy of this book for the purpose of this review. All opinions within this review are my own.

  I think there has always been a lot of pressure on adults and children to "do" something big with their lives in the way of career. We do often ask children, What do you want to Do When you Grow up?" Who Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up? by Paula Faris changes the tone and the outlook for children with this book. I am not sure I can begin to tell you how much I love this book, but I will try. Who Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up? has beautiful bright illustrations. I also love that the illustrations are inclusive and show children of all colors, cultures and backgrounds. I think that background adds to the appeal of the book. This is a large children's book, measuring about 9 1/4 by 9 3/4 inches in size and 32 pages long. It is aimed at children ages four to eight but it really is a timeless message that could appeal to people of all ages.   Who Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up? features a girl named Lina who doesn't know what she wants to "be&quo
