Christmas in the Manger

Cute Christmas book for my grandson that loves books. Sturdy, good illustration and easy page turning.

My 11 month old great grandson loves to have this read to him. It is a sweet story of the birth of Jesus, with simple words.

Such a sweet little board book! Perfect for young toddlers who are just starting to learn the reason behind Christmas: Jesus! Short rhymes and colorful illustrations will keep the attention span of any little one. Would make a great 1st Christmas present!

A wonderful board book about the birth of Jesus.

I read through as many books i could find on here that would be for telling a toddler the story of Jesus in simple yet truthful way. I came across quite a handful of book that either didn't tell the story correctly or some had typos of the wrong words, it wasn't easy to tell online, i had too keep looking and looking because people in reviews flip through pages too fast. My son loves this book and the drawings are similar looking to his actual wooden nativity toy that he got last year so this year we read the story and opened up the book when we played with the nativity and he was able to put the two together and further learn about Jesus. I would buy this again for sure!

Excellent short sentences with rhymes for reading to even infants as young as 3 months. The drawings are dear, calming, and gentle in tone. Just beautiful. We read each page 3 times. Baby girl loves it.

I bought this for my daughter's first Christmas book. The simple text and beautiful illustrations are perfect for her at 9 months. However, the content is inaccurate. The author included the wise men, who were not actually at the birth of Christ and does not include a page on Joseph. I wish the author had left out the wise men (or the ram) and added Joseph. This may not be an issue for some, and for my infant daughter I'm not concerned but I think buyers should be aware.

This is a sturdy board book with lovely illustrations and simple text that tell about Jesus' birth in a way young children love. I love this wonderful little book and have ordered several copies for gifts. I also set one book beside my Fisher-Price Little People Nativity set for the toddlers to enjoy. Yes, I wish the shepherds page mentioned they were told by angels about the Savior who would be found in a manger, and I wish Joseph was mentioned, but overall this book is one of the better ones from a Christian perspective. (Some of the others make no mention of how the Baby Jesus is so special.) This one notes that He is the reason for Christmas Day. The page about the wise men is especially good.

Ce petit livre a toutes les qualités, il met Noël et sa vraie signification à la portée des enfants. Les images sont simples et belles, tout comme le texte. Les enfants l'apprécient beaucoup.

This is probably the most beautiful Christmas book I have ever seen. The images are crisp and bold, with gorgeous rich colours and lovely simple detail. The text is written in verse and the typeface is perfect for small children who will enjoy the story over several years until they can read it for themselves, by which time this will be a book whose emergence from the loft they will anticipate each year.

Great gift idea!

Simple sentences on each page with lively pictures. Great to help my toddler learn the different parts of the christmas story.

Such a sweet book with simple and toddler-friendly pictures. A great book to introduce the true Christmas story to little ones. I was very pleased with this book and would recommend it to anyone looking for a toddler Christmas book.
