Rumble! Zap! Pow! by Diane Short and Illustrated by Luke Daab is a sweet and fun little Bible that packs a quick punch in a short space. All the stories focus on ways that God proved himself mighty throughout the Bible and each story features a Mighty Thought (kind of like the theme), Power words (or key verse), and and activity to drive everything home.I think this children's Bible is an ideal pick for little boys for a whole host of reasons! My boys have loved the comic book style. I think it keeps them actively involved, following all the different pictures around the page. All the comic book style action words (such as a blast cloud with the word "Zoomfa" inside) really take the stories into "boy language" and speak straight to their little sound-effect sensibilities! And there is just the cutest little sheep super hero who introduces all the stories- so that appeals to both mom and boys!
I will say that it is pretty surface, as Children's Bibles tend to be, but if you are just looking for a good overview of Bible Stories that present them in such a way that your kids are sure to listen, then you will most definitely enjoy Rumble! Zap! Pow!
