From the star to Baby Jesus, Christmas in the Manger,
written by Nola Buck and illustrated by Felicia Bond, describes the characters
in the Christmas story through first person rhymes. This board book is good for children who enjoy simple
pictures and a break-down of the figures usually seen together in Nativity
depictions. Although a board book,
the text lends itself to being read by early readers, so it’s a book that can
be used through several years. For
children who like riddles, the reader can use the clues in the rhyme to
formulate questions about each character.
This simply written, simply illustrated book is able to convey the
greatest story so that children can learn about Baby Jesus.
