No story is more beloved—or more often told—than the story of the first Christmas, when Jesus was born. In text that echoes the language of the Gospels of Luke and Matthew, Jesus Is Born tells the entire story of the nativity, from the angel Gabriel’s awe-inspiring message to the Virgin Mary to the miraculous birth of Christ in a lowly manger in Bethlehem; from the luminous star that led shepherds and three wise men to the newborn king to King Herod’s terrible threat and God’s promise to keep Jesus, Mary, and Joseph safe. A timeless and complete retelling of the tale, Jesus Is Born is the perfect introduction to the story at the heart of Christmas.
JESUS IS BORN by Sophie Piper (author) and Anne Yvonne Gilbert (illustrator): The good news of Jesus’s birth is brought to life in this instant classic. With illustrations full of detail and emotion from one of the world’s most celebrated artists, Jesus Is Born will be treasured by parents and children alike. “This accessible retelling is more complete than most Nativity stories for children. . . An excellent choice for church libraries and Christian families who want a contemporary retelling of the Christmas story.” —Kirkus Reviews
My Review:
Jesus is Born is a beautifully illustrated book that is for children and grown ups a like. It combines the stories of the birth of Jesus from The Gospel of Luke and The Gospel of Matthew. It's a must own and read book for everyone around Christmas time and on Christmas Eve. I can't wait to share it with my three children! I want to wait until Christmas Eve to read it to them and explain to them why we celebrate Christmas and about the birth of our Savior.
