Those are great recommendations! My favorite is The First Night:

Illustrations are beautiful and the narration is simple and heartfelt.

Hi Rachelle,

Weird, my previous comment didn’t show up again. Well, anyway, I’m looking for that book. In the meantime, I changed my blog URL again. I think I like this one better. I like the new look of yours!

Peace,

Ray

Thanks for reminding me about the splendor of How Many Miles to Bethlehem… I’m digging it out of the bookcase TONIGHT!

HI Rachelle,

OHH, I think I like that first book you mentioned. I’m going to look for it at B&N. BTW, I have a new blog site now, do check it out in another week and so when I have it set up the way I like.

Peace,

Ray

A favorite Jesus-y Christmas book of my kids is Martin Wadell’s Room for A Little One. I’m going to check out these that you recommend. Thank you!

Thank you for these recommendations, Rachelle. And for including my demographic (“child-at-heart”) in the target readership. I really enjoyed your descriptions of the books…so much that….

I’m going to order one and maybe both books. But I don’t know if it will benefit you because I have to order from the canadian amazon site.

Also, did you read the “Book by Its Cover” post today? It’s a McSweeney’s publication called “The Latke Who Couldn’t Stop Screaming…a christmas story.” From the title alone, I think it might be a book for you.

Here is the link: http://www.book-by-its-cover.com/childrens/the-latke-who-couldnt-stop-screaming-a-christmas-story.

And one more recommendation because I know you like paper-cut art. I just received this book in the mail earlier this week: http://www.amazon.com/First-Noel-Christmas-Carousel/dp/0763621900/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1196885774&sr=1-1.com

It is as beautiful as the reviewers have said. A real treasure.
