In ‘My First Christmas Story’ Tim Dowley presents a bright and cheery traditional retelling of Bible Nativity story for your 2s to 5s.

With the complete biblical account in simple words and charming, colourful pictures, preschool children learn the reason we celebrate the birth of this special baby boy in a story they’ll want to hear over and over again.

Parents, teachers and children will find ‘My First Story of Christmas’ a joy and delight to read and share as they follow the brightly coloured, artistically beautiful and pleasant illustrations that carry this straight forward, biblically authentic account.

In words and tone that very young children will understand and enjoy, even the youngest will treasure this as a book they began to read for themselves. Sturdy and long lasting, this simple Christmas gift will treasured and read over and over again each holiday season.

Tim Dowley's retelling is perfectly matched to the delightful pictures drawn and coloured by Roger Langton. Biblical reference to subjects, places and events – including Judea, King Herod, and Bethlehem helps to make this enjoyable story into a valuable early learning experience for even the very young.
