Two Christmas Books to Share with Little Ones

The Beginner's Bible Little Lamb's Christmas: A Finger Puppet Board Book

Book Description:
Introduce babies and toddlers to the Christmas story told through the eyes of little Lamb. Children will love listening to the story of Jesus' birthday and play with the adorable, plush lamb finger puppet included.

The Beginner’s Bible Little Lamb’s Christmas brings the story of Jesus' birth to life from a new and fun but faithful retelling. Readers will follow little Lamb from the hillside to the manger where he celebrates the arrival of God's only son.

Featuring vibrant art from the beloved The Beginner's Bible, this chunky, durable board book with finger puppet is perfect for parents to share with their children. It makes an adorable stocking stuffer or wrapped gift.

My Review:
Little Lamb is excited he gets to visit baby Jesus at the manger. Told in simple text, Little Lamb introduces children to the reason we celebrate Christmas. I like the interactive element of the lamb finger puppet as he tells the story on each page. What a fun way to share Jesus' birth with little ones. This would be a great stocking stuffer or teaching tool for toddlers. I received a complimentary copy of this item. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Over in a Stable by Suzanne Nelson (Author), Aleksandar Zolotic (Illustrator)

Book Description:
Over in a Stable, written by award-winning author Suzanne Nelson, is a beautiful and engaging Christmas read-aloud for you and your little ones that tells the story of the nativity, featuring the memorable counting and cadence of the beloved classic poem “Over in the Meadow.”

Children ages 4 to 8 will enjoy counting aloud from one little drummer boy to ten little children. 

Over in a Stable features vibrant illustrations from artist Aleksandar Zolotic, showing the animals and people who gathered to celebrate the arrival of baby Jesus on that miraculous night in Bethlehem

Over in a stable, though the hour was growing late,

grazed one mother sheep and her fleecy lambs eight.

“Give,” said the mother. “We give,” said the eight.

And they gave their hay to make a bed to rest a King so great. 

With a shiny cover that features glitter accents, Over the Stable is a treasured picture book your family will cherish for many years.

My Review:
Over in the Stable is a beautiful counting book that celebrates the birth of Jesus. The words of Suzanne Nelson and illustrations of Aleksandar Zolotic marry together for the perfect book to share on Christmas Eve before the little ones are tucked in. The animals in the story have such sweet, beautiful faces. This would also be a great book to use in Sunday School or Junior Church. I can see Over in the Stable becoming an annual holiday favorite. I received a complimentary copy of this item. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
