Who was born at Christmas? Who was born in Bethlehem at Christmas? Who was born in Bethlehem at Christmas and had a manger for a bed?

The Baby Born at Christmas is a perfect introduction to the story of Jesus' birth for young readers. The story is simply told from the Bible with just enough detail to draw 4-6s in to the nativity story through twelve beautifully illustrated double spreads. The story combines the accounts from Luke and Matthew in to their traditional chronological order, beginning with Mary's visit from the angel and concluding with the presentation of the gifts from the wise men.

From The Good Bookstall - October 2011

Beautifully told, beautifully illustrated, this is a lovely re-telling of the Christmas story that could become so tired of being told, but when portrayed like this is renewed and very welcome.

Barnabas for Children have published The Baby Born at Christmas by Sally Ann Wright, illustrated by Honor Ayres. This is designed to be read with children aged 4-6 and tells the nativity story from Luke and Matthew in a simple but engaging way, again with lovely double-page illustrations.
