Once Upon the Very First Christmas for Little Ones
Bestselling author and songwriter Rory Feek takes children and families on a beloved journey to Christmas past in Once Upon the Very First Christmas. On a picturesque farm, schoolchildren gather their homemade costumes and props and put on a heartwarming Christmas play for the community. As they don halos for the angel choir or round up sheep for the final nativity scene, readers will be immersed in the greatest blessings of Christmas--the gift of Jesus--and be reminded that we can rejoice together in the wonder of the season.
Rory's soothing and lyrical retelling of the Christmas story
- is paired with magical illustrations by Christine Cuddihy of a homemade Christmas play,
- is perfect for ages 0 to 4, and
- is a great gift for Christmas, baby showers, and baptisms.
Take a moment to slow down this Advent and Christmas to treasure that first Christmas, God's gift of Jesus, and every precious moment He's given you to celebrate with family and friends.
