The John the Baptist Read-A-Long Sing-A-Long DVD helps children learn to read while they learn a lesson in Baptism.

Children will read and hear this inspiring story of John the Baptist - a moving story of courage and conviction seen through the life of one of God’s greatest prophets who gave to prepare the way for the Lord. They will witness the strength and integrity of this biblical hero as he stands against political and spiritual adversity, and then be thrilled as he finally beholds the Lamb of God - all brought to life through colourful pictures, and dramatic narration and character voices.

The Read-A-Long sections of this DVD present the story as images of still cartoon scenes with the story's text below - just like a paper storybook - and children will be able to read along in two ways:

• "Read to Me" option, which brings the story alive with narration, character voices and automatic "page" turning
• "Read by Myself" option, which allows children to read the story and turn the "pages" at their own pace

The Sing-A-Long feature is a fully animated and orchestrated original song, with on-screen lyrics to help children to sing along to the song.
