Lake Mary, FL—Charisma House Book Group, a part of Charisma Media, recently confirmed a strategic distribution partnership with the Emmy-nominated Superbook Bible series for children, produced by the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN).

“We are excited about this new partnership with Charisma House Book Group. For over thirty years, Superbook’s mission has been to bring the stories of the Bible to the children of the world,” said Gordon Robertson, CEO of CBN and executive producer of the reimagined Superbook series. “This distribution agreement will allow us to honor the life-changing legacy of the original series and continue to introduce the new  Superbook to today’s generation of viewers.”

Over eight million people watched the series, aiding in its establishment as throughout the world. Upon international launch it was given its English name, Superbook.
