 Review:

Set to the rhythm of the familiar cadence of a Christmastime classic, 'Twas the Night Before Jesus brings to life the true meaning of Christmas in beautiful rhyme. Accompanied by whimsical and humorous illustrations, this book will quickly become a favorite among families at Christmas and all year long. 

My favorite thing about this book was how it doesn't just tell of Jesus's birth, but gives the gospel and the reason for His birth and sacrifice. A quick read, but one that you will want to re-read over and over again! A book that I can happily recommend, a wonderful book to share with the little people in your life, and makes a great gift!

 I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
