The wonderful story of the First Christmas is retold here. Beautifully illustrated by Elena Temporin, this is an ideal way to introduce young children to the Christmas story. It is ideal for both pre-readers and beginner readers as the carefully written text can be read aloud to very young children or read independently by those who are gaining confidence with their reading.
Presents six Christmas lullabies with illustrations and text, and includes a CD with fourteen songs, including "I Saw Three Ships," "Away in a Manger," and "The Shepherds' Farewell." On board pages.
Each of these stories highlights a key moment in the Old or New Testament, from Creation to the Resurrection and on to Revelation, where the veil between heaven and earth is pulled aside, and the wonder of God shines through. The wonderfully warm illustrations perfectly capture the angelsโ glowing grace and enhance the beauty of the stories, making a book that will be treasured by children, parents, and teachers years to come.
