The Story of the Nativity for Kids—now with an added activity!
The story of the birth of Jesus is retold for the very young in this beautifully illustrated book that will be treasured for years to come. Youngsters will delight in the story of some very noisy animals spending an evening in an ordinary stable with a very extraordinary baby whose name was Jesus. Children will love the repetitive nature of the noises made by the animals on that first Christmas night in Bethlehem. This story is a memorable way for little ones to first encounter the story of God becoming flesh and dwelling among us.
This beloved children’s story is now new and improved with a special activity for young readers encouraging them to consider how their love for the many animals present at Jesus’ birth can help them better understand what Catholics celebrate on Christmas.

Details
My grandchildren are two (twins) and three. They raise chickens, ducks, and pigs and love making the animal sounds. The vibrant colors and text keep their attention. They know, baby Jesus, mommy Mary, and daddy God and Joseph. I strong recommend it.
No, the animal sounds are not electronic, however every reader gets to put their own creative moo, heehaw, baa and squeak into it. It’s time for the reader/ narrator to step up the old fashioned way and “ do it yourself” and let the creative process bloom.
Great job, ascension Press.
I agree with Paul L. I thought the animal noises would be audible, not just read aloud. But the pictures are very colorful.
The description makes it seem like you will actually hear the sounds of the animals as you go through this story, but the only sounds will be the ones the reader makes when you read it to your child. The description needs to be changed to indicate this to the customer.
This is our second kids book from Ascension and it is great! The recommended age is 3-5 but my 18 month old loves all the animals and sounds. I'd recommend this to kids of any age. I only wish there was a board book option.
