Booky Advent Calendar Day 4: "A Christmas Story" by Brian Wildsmith (OUP / Oxford Children's Books)
Brian's version of the classic nativity story is given a new lease of life in this special gift edition.
Once, a long time ago, in a town called Nazareth, a little donkey was born.
As the wonderful events of the Nativity unfold, Brian Wildsmith tells of the journey of a little girl and a donkey to Bethlehem.
It is their perspective on the Christmas story that gives the book such an intimate, innocent and child-centred appeal.
This classic story from one of the most internationally acclaimed picture-book writers and artists has deservedly become an enduring favourite with children at Christmas time. With the new cover it's a brilliant gift to tuck under the tree as an extra present.
