Description:
A long time ago, a long way away, some very clever men discovered a very exciting promise!
In Bethlehem, under the quiet night sky, an Extra Special Baby was born.
Let Antonia Woodward's beautiful retelling of the Nativity story take you back to the excitement of that very first Christmas night. In this exquisitely illustrated Christmas picture book, full of warmth, read about baby Jesus, who was so extra special that life on earth would change forever.
A delightful picture book to share with a child at bedtime or a group of children during the Christmas season.
