If you grew up evangelical in the 1980s you likely heard Psalty - and Psaltina, Melody, Harmony, Rhythm, and Charity Churchmouse. I was looking for the recording where Charity says "I don't want to be a servant. I want to have servants!" but it eludes me. Best line in the series.

Anthropomorphic Bibles creep me out. How about you?
My family had a massive collection of those when I was little. I think I listened to the Christmas Calamity and the Time Machine story the most frequently.
G Poulin, good question, I had to think about it a bit. I anthropomorphize things on my own quite readily, speaking to them as if they have personalities inside them. I don't mentally change their appearance at all. I also like beast-fable, even with illustrations. I don't like them in 3D moving about at all. All of them creep me out, not just the Bibles. When living things are in my own imagination I can simply imbue them with a little personality, with few visual or reality changes. When someone else does it to me full bore, I don't like it, especially an inanimate object.
