About this title

Synopsis

Each story in this unique Advent collection is accompanied by colorful illustrations and matching ornaments, reflecting God’s use of ordinary people, plants, birds, and animals to herald the birth of Christ. The ageless tales reflect the celebrations in many countries, including England, Russia, Syria, Mexico, and Poland. This storybook answers questions such as “Why does the robin have a red breast?” and “Why are rosemary flowers blue?” These stories can be read one per night during Advent with children choosing their favorites each time. The ornaments can then be stored year to year in the book pockets provided.
