Christmas Story Book Children Will Ask to Read Again and Again

I’d like to thank Christian Focus 4 Kids for sending me The Christmas Story by Carine Mackenzie in return for my honest review, and also for providing a book to give away!

The Bible does a wonderful job of telling the Christmas story. It is, after all, God’s Word. The Bible is all about Jesus.

It’s so fun to have a Christmas story book for children, though, that your kids can hold, look at the pictures, and ask you to read again and again!

Christmas Story Book for Children

Here’s what I love about The Christmas Story: The Bible Version by Carine Mackenzie (CF4K, 2014):

• It’s in chronological order. The accounts of Jesus’ birth in the Gospels all highlight different aspects of his story. Here they’re all told together.
• It’s faithful to the biblical account.
• There are 19 numbered 2-page spreads, so if you’d like, you can read a small part of the story each day leading up to Christmas.
• It starts with Adam, addresses the prophets, and then tells the story of Christ’s birth. The whole Bible is addressed. Because the Bible is all about Jesus.
• The book ends with “God’s Gift to Us” and a picture of a girl and boy under a Christmas tree. Mrs. Mackenzie explains why Christmas is a time for rejoicing for all Christians, and quickly tells the story of Jesus’ life, crucifixion, resurrection and ascension.
• I really like Carine Mackenzie’s storytelling.
• The illustrations by Natascia Ugliano are whimsical pastels that just make me happy. (There are no pictures of Jesus’ face, for those who require that detail.)
