christmas in the barn

This book came in the time I was given that it would arrive. It came in good condition and has not been used yet, as it is a Christmas gift for the grandchildren.

a keepsake book

What a wonderful telling of the Christmas story, or any birth for that matter. It's written in a similar style to the Big Red Barn and is just as lovely to read. It's a perfect addition to our Christmas books and would also make a wonderful baby gift.
