Manga Bible Graphic Novel

Do you have a reluctant reader in your family? Hand him one of these page-turners, sit back and watch what happens.

Walls, Brawls, and the Great Rebellion, book 2 of the Manga Bible series, puts a new spin on some Old Testament books. Departing somewhat from the tradition of the scribes, this unique rendering of Numbers through Ruth uses pen and ink to portray these ancient texts in a format that communicates to today's young adults-Manga style!

With top-notch black-and-white illustrations and a fun yet poignant tone, Walls, Brawls, and the Great Rebellion continues the biblical narrative in a compellingly modern way, showing Moses and the Israelites as they wander through the desert, Joshua as he leads the Israelites into the Promised Land, Gideon and Samson as they save God's people from their enemies, and Boaz and Ruth as they meet and fall in love.

Action-packed, humorous, and inspiring, this distinct rendition of these books of the Bible presents their stories and truths from a slightly different angle. Book two in the manga Bible completes the story of the Israelites Exodus from Egypt and entry into the Promised Land. The fun retelling will send kids to their NIV's wondering, "Is that really in the Bible?" Learn more.
