      The First Christmas Ever is a retelling of the events surrounding the birth of Jesus taken directly from the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. Written in a simple style, this book is perfect for young children ages 4-8. And unlike other books focusing on Christ’s birth, it continues the story allowing for children to connect the baby in the manger with the Savior of the world. Dennis Jones’ illustrations are wonderful. Highly detailed and colorful, they depict the story with scenes of Joseph knocking on doors in Bethlehem, the stay in the stable, and even the arrival of the Wise Men that took place a couple of years following Jesus’s birth. I especially loved the expressions on the faces of the people and animals. You do not want to miss the chickens! This book is a good choice to add to your family Christmas reading.Recommended.Audience: children ages 4-8.(Thanks to Zonderkidz for a review copy. All opinions expressed are mine alone.)
