The Christmas Baby
I love this little book, aimed at the youngest readers and listeners. Part of its appeal for me is that as the story unfolds we get a real sense of Joseph's excitement at the coming birth of the Baby, and of his worry that he will not be able to find a warm and safe spot for his wife to rest. When at last he and Mary reach the stable and the Baby is born, the great Good News spreads from the animals who witness the birth to the angels and the shepherds, and even to kings in distant lands.
This is a sweet one for your basket, and you can get it as a board book, too -- for your more "rugged" readers!
