Ventriloquist-actress Shari Lewis turned author, and published a pair of books for Doubleday which condensed classic tales from the Bible into two volumes under the title, One Minute Bible Stories. Volume 1, the Old Testament, takes readers on a speed course from Adam & Eve and Noah's Ark to Queen Esther. We'll cover volume 2, the New Testament, another time, but for right now, here's Volume 1:
One quibble. The Bible tells us that Eve met the serpent alone, and later gave an apple to Adam. That Adam & Eve are shown together is part of the condensation of the story.
To my knowledge, the videos were never shown on television.
Rating: A.
