The Shepherd’s Christmas opens with a little shepherd boy looking for a
lost sheep. As he spots the sheep, an angel appears and informs him of a
Savior who has just been born. The angel tells the boy to follow the
star to find the baby. The boy tells other shepherds and they all head
out to find the baby. The boy, still carrying the sheep, and the other
shepherds find the baby and rejoice.
The First Christmas Tree

The First Christmas Tree opens with chipmunks playing in a forest. They
come upon a sad tree. The tree is sad because he has no one to celebrate
Christmas with. The chipmunks and other animals gather berries, nuts,
pine cones, and other objects from the forest with which to decorate the
lonely tree. The animals explain that they have never had a Christmas tree and this tree will be their first one. The tree turns out
beautiful. The animals and the tree celebrate Christmas together.
Each book is only six pages long. The pop out illustrations are very good, but the books are poorly constructed. The pages will easily tear. Adults will need to supervise the use of these books if they wish to enjoy them for more than a few days.
Here are several other Christmas books your child will enjoy.
