I have to say, I love a children’s book by Glenys Nellist! They are always so unique and special. This year I discovered Read And Rhyme The First Christmas, a book celebrating the story of Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus. It is the perfect read-a-long choice for families. I love that it can be enjoyed by all ages. The sturdy board book can take the curious fingers of babies and toddlers, the peek-a-book words will challenge preschoolers/early readers, and the rhyming couplets will delight all those gathered around. Each page is filled with the colorful and detailed illustrations of Ag Jatkowksa. But the most important thing is the message of joy presented — God’s Son Jesus is born!
It’s not too late to get this book for your Christmas Eve celebration! You and your family will love it!
Recommended.
Audience: children/families.
