The First Christmas by Allia Zobel Nolan is the retelling of Jesus' birth from the New Testament books of Luke and Matthew.

In easy-to-read text, The First Christmas is a child's version of God's gift of the Christ Child to all mankind. The story follows Mary as the angel tells her she is to give birth to God's son, who will be called Jesus, through to Jesus' birth.

The illustrations are bold, colorful and inviting and contribute to the child's understanding of the Christmas story.

The First Christmas is a wonderful early reader that will help children learn the story of Jesus' birth in a way that will warm their hearts and contribute to their relationship with God.

Armchair Interviews says: A perfect gift for that special child in your life.
