A book he did not seek for.

Beautiful picture book however it did not captivate our 7yr. old. After catching on to the 'Twas the night before Christmas' references in the book, he laughed and that was it. He prefered His straightforward hand-me-down scripture- based Easter book.

Was always looking for the Easter story to go along with the Christmas story. Very glad to have both as a set for our young ones.!!!
