Jesus in the Manger tells the story of Christ's birth to very young children. Warm and inviting illustrations with enchanting, interactive flaps help toddlers learn to recognize Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus, as well as the angel Gabriel, Mary's house in Nazareth and the stable in Bethlehem. This engaging book will be enjoyed over and over again by little ones who will soon be telling the Christmas story themselves.
With sweet, four-color pictures, this board book with rounded corners introduces toddlers to the story of Christmas.
Baby Jesus, Mary and Joseph, the shepherds, the angels, and the wise men - all are illustrated with large, inviting pictures. On the opposing pages, are several smaller pictures with details from the scene: the donkey, the manger, the sheep, etc. By pointing out and naming the pictures with a parent, even very young children can come to know and love the Christmas story.
The joy and hope of Christmas are at the heart of this book intended for the whole family. Starting with the 1st of December (like an Advent calendar) each day has a new story, leading up to Christmas. Richly illustrated, this collection includes stories based on the Gospel accounts of the birth of Christ, as well as stories about Advent and Christmas customs. Also presented are original tales about living the Christmas message.
This brightly illustrated Advent calendar changes day by day into a multi-dimensional Nativity scene. Beginning the first of December and continuing through the big feasts of the Christmas Season, children can open a window each day to reveal a new detail or a new character of the Nativity scene.
A small booklet accompanies the calendar, providing the family with instructions, Scripture quotes, meditations and prayers. On each page is something to inspire all the members of the family.
