At last, the most celebrated book of all time, the Bible, is available on DVD! With the Animated Kids Bible from Kids Bible Company, you will experience epic adventures and Bible heroes like never before! Each richly illustrated episode is fully animated in 3D and suitable for kids of all ages!

In Genesis Episode One, entitled "Creation," you will see God creating the earth and every living thing, including Adam and Eve. Look on as the wicked serpent tricks Eve into disobeying God, and go with them as they are banished from the Garden. Includes the story of Cain and Abel. The video is 23 minutes and full of wonderful animation with realistic movement, great visuals and a story your kids will never forget. DVD is fully loaded with extras. You'll enjoy music videos, trailers, fact files, story boards, a Family Tree and much more.

It starts off at the very beginning of everything - God's creation of the earth. Here the visuals are particularly stunning, as you see landscapes forming, the first animals popping out of the life, and God's greatest creation man being formed from the earth. The imagery is spectacular and inspiring.

Then, we meet the first man and woman. The story of the Garden of Eden presented here in the Animated Kid's Bible is perfect for kids. You see Adam naming the animals, scenes of the lush forest - and the creepiest character in the whole series, the serpent.

The last part of the video is the murder story of Cain of Abel. This has the most powerful lesson of all to teach your kids. The murder scene is chilling and it will give your kids lots to think about.

After you watch the story, Pip the Penguin, a delightful character, appears to lead you through the DVD's special features. These include...

In-depth character profiles where you can learn more about Adam, Eve, Cain, Abel, the serpent and two characters, Seth and Enoch, who are not featured in the video but play an important role in the story. The details include more background on the characters, as well as the meanings of their names.

The Fact File, a fun and easy-to-follow explanation for the kids. This gives details about the places where the action happened, including colorful maps. This connects these old Bible stories with the modern world of today, so that your kids understand that it's more than just a fanciful tale.

Music videos with scenes from the story. These are great fun for the kids, with songs they can learn and sing with. The music video is also a quick, fun way to review all that happened in the story.

The storyboard, showing the images in their rough form. This is edited together to make a kind of music video with a voice over, that can be fun to watch and used to review.

Finally, there are trailers of all the upcoming episodes. Once your kids get a taste of the Animated Kid's Bible, they will want them all!

This series is a wonderful way to show your kids that those old Bible stories aren't boring at all. They're bright, colorful and action-packed... and more importantly they contain lessons for our lives today. [Note: The creators have used their imaginations to adapt these stories so they are entertaining for children, so do not expect stick-to-the-scripture-only accounts.]
