Review: Lovely story book for Christmas collection - Our 4 year old is not christened but we celebrate Christmas and are Irish. Even though we no longer practice, it is hard to ignore the Christian element of Christmas and nativity scenes displayed in Ireland and other European countries around this time of year. I always enjoyed the nativity story and songs growing up hence why I wanted to share with our four year old. This is a lovely child friendly introduction to the nativity story - Mary and Joseph's journey and the birth of baby Jesus. The illustrations are lovely. Only oddity is the falling snow. All in all this is a lovely book to add to our Christmas collection.
Review: The Christmas Story - This book reinforced the Nativity story for my 5yr old Grandson who started school this year. It initiated lots of dialogue about the story of the birth of Jesus, and he was able to relate to the different characters in the story.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Christmas Story

This book reinforced the Nativity story for my 5yr old Grandson who started school this year. It initiated lots of dialogue about the story of the birth of Jesus, and he was able to relate to the different characters in the story.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book with beautiful illustrations
*by O***W on 27 November 2012*

I brought this book for my 4 month old son to read to him this year and every other year until he outgrows it. He loves looking at the colourful pages and listening to me reading and smiles at the pictures. It is the perfect book to tell your baby/child the christmas story. I highly recommend this book to anyone wishing to tell the story to their little ones. It would also make a lovely gift.
