The Christmas Baby

Sally Ann Wright and Honor Ayres

From The Diocese of Lincoln Children and Youth Office - November 2008

This really nice little book is ideal for the younger end. Inside the front cover is a 24 page Advent Calendar, and in the back cover a 'pop up' crib scene, with the Holy Family, shepherds and assorted beasts. The ten internal pages start with 'Mary and the Angel' and end with 'Wise men worship the child Jesus'. Still only three wise men in the picture, though 'Jesus' looks like he could be crawling age. Nicely detailed pictures to play 'what can you see, what do you think is happening?' games.
