The Animals' Christmas Eve

A Christmas Nativity Book for Kids

This sweet barnyard Christmas counting story makes the perfect gift!

In the barn on Christmas Eve,
After all the people leave,
The animals, in voices low,
Remember Christmas long ago . . .


So begins a sweet rhyming story in which a group of animals recounts the events surrounding Jesus' birth in the manger, and the parts some of their ancestors played in it.
