A Christmas Prayer features

  • soft illustrations that glow with the peace of Christmastime

A Christmas Prayer

Chapter One

I sit here by the tree And look up at the star. With loving family all around, I see how blessed we are.

So this, my Christmas prayer, Is not for toys and dolls- It's thanking You for Christmas gifts You've given to us all.

Thank You, God, for Gabriel, Who brought news of great joy. He said to Mary, "God chose you To have His baby boy."

Thank You, God, for Gabriel, Your precious Christmas gift.

Thank You, God, for Mary. She let faith lead the way: "I am His servant girl," she said. "Let it be as you say."

Thank You, God, for Mary, Your precious Christmas gift.

Thank You, God, for Joseph, Who trusted Your good plan. He took Mary to be his wife. He was a faithful man.

Thank You, God, for Joseph, Your precious Christmas gift.

Thank You for the donkey That helped them all to leave And got Mary to Bethlehem In time for Christmas Eve!

Thank You for the donkey, Your precious Christmas gift.

Thank You for the manger, A bed made out of hay. And thank You for the cows and sheep That shared their food that day!

Thank You for the manger, Your precious Christmas gift.

Thank You for the shepherds, Who heard of Jesus' birth. They saw the angels in the sky Announcing peace on earth!

Thank You for the shepherds, Your precious Christmas gift.

Thank You for the bright star That shined and led the way, So wise men found and worshiped Him, As we still do today.

Thank You for the bright star, Your precious Christmas gift.

    This book is adorable and us a good message. My oldest daughter is almost four and we enjoyed reading this together for Christmas time. I did have to remind her who everyone was the first few times but it's a good Christmas story we will add to the collection.

    I will be returning this book. The idea of this book was fine... thanking God for all the people and things involved in bringing Jesus to earth so we could have a savior. However, the book just fell flat for me. The artwork was strange and unrefined. The color palate and images were pretty girly especially given she was laying out dolls etc. Plus i didn't like the repetition of "thank you God for______, your precious Christmas gift" at the end of every page when you already thanked god for that person or thing at the top of each page. Just not to my liking and will be returning.

    Great book. My son has all of her prayer books and loves having them read to him.

    This book is really cute and has a great message. The ONLY reason I am giving it a 4 instead of a 5 is because based on the front cover, I thought the characters were black. However, they are very pale skinned when you actually open the book. I was not expecting that at all and was a little shocked. However, the book is cute and my daughter liked it so we are definitely keeping it for her library. I just wish the cover wasn't so misleading.

    Lovely little book . Thick and padded . The sort of book anyone would enjoy reading to their little one on the lead up to Christmas . More about the true meaning of Christmas. I love the colours and illustrations .
