We love Christmas around here and I'm so excited that Moriah is understanding a little more this year! I can't wait for her to truly grasp the meaning of the season....Jesus!
I had the opportunity to review One Wintry Night by Ruth Bell Graham a couple of weeks ago and it's definitely one that will be pulled out every Christmas season!
Since Moriah is only (almost) two, it was a little lengthy for her to sit all the way through. However, the meaning of the book is something that I feel is very important so we continue to read a little bit at a time!
Here's what Thomas Nelson has to say about this wonderful resource:
One Wintry Night—A snowy night, a warm cabin, and a boy who hears the Christmas story told for the first time—beginning with Creation and ending with the Resurrection.
You can also view a few pages of the book here!*ages 4-7*Beloved story from the late Ruth Bell Graham with dramatic and timeless art*New foreword from Billy Graham

We read One Wintry Night every year! Such an amazing book. The illustrations are fantastic & the message is the true message of Christmas. It has really helped our kids understand why we even celebrate Christmas. It is all about Jesus!

ReplyDeleteOn Christmas Eve everyone chooses a book and we take turns reading them out loud. My children are now 21, 16, 16, 14, and 10 and we still do this. I love it! We will have to check out Ruth Bell Graham's book. I really enjoy her. I lost my wordpress.com followers when I switched web host this week. If you were following me and did not get the updated post today, please follow me again. I would be grateful! Thanks and Many Blessings!! Diane Roark www.recipesforourdailybread.com

Hey Christie,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway of the One Wintry Night book. I know that moms everywhere are so busy this time of year, and it a challenge to find affordable and meaningful gifts. I love the One Wintry Night book because I worked with Ruth Bell Graham on the book. I was the illustrator. So much love and prayer went into the book and I hope your readers will have a chance to experience something that was near and dear to Ruth's and my heart.
