Lion Classic Christmas Stories is a delightful collection of Children’s traditional Nativity and Christmas-time stories from around the world.

Beautifully presented, this colourful hardback brings together the Bible story with charming tales inspired by the Christmas nativity all retold and illustrated for children aged 7 to 10.

Grown ups too will love to share the stories with children - from the starry skies of Bethlehem in the story of the first Christmas to the sparkling frosts of the Russian north in the classic tale of the Nutcracker. These 12 joyful stories will remind adults and young readers alike that every Christmas is a time of hopefulness, peace and happiness for all who share the wonder of the Christmas message.

With detailed artwork and wonderful gold-flecked illustrations, The Lion Classic Christmas Story Collection is a gift to bring joy this Christmas and to treasure ever after. Stories from around the world include the best loved nativity stories from the gospels of Luke and Matthew, the stories of Baboushka and Papa Panov, The Fir Tree and The Nutcracker.

Welcome your 7s to 10s to the wealth of storytelling wisdom with roots deep in the traditional Christmas story. Richly illustrated, this classic collection will capture the mind of any child who loves to read or be read to.

This beautifully presented volume of classic Christmas stories from around the world is written for children aged 7+ to enjoy reading alone, or for reading aloud in a classroom setting or with family sitting round a log fire!

A mixture of stories from the Christian heritage and more secular tales, these retellings all evoke the true spirit of Christmas around the world. Included are Nativity stories from the Gospels of Luke and Matthew, the stories of Baboushka and Papa Panov, Fir Tree and The Nutcracker.

The whole collection sparkles with colourful and detailed artwork from Jane Ray. Praise for Jane Ray: "Rich in detail, Jane Ray's stunning illustrations capture the magic of our world" - Julia Eccleshare, about Stories for a Fragile Planet.
