RGB300'TwasTheNightBeforeJesus ‘Twas the Night Before Jesus is a beautifully illustrated picture book that introduces children to the life of Jesus and God’s promise of an eternal home in heaven.

I love this Christmas story! Why do I love it, because it tells about Jesus' birth but also tells what He did after He came , He died for us.

I really like that the book starts out with "Twas the night before" and ends with "and to all a good night" . Yes, phrase from two other favorite Christmas classics but the story within these two phrases is definitely the Scriptural story of Jesus's birth and Resurrection. This book is written in a way that young children can understand. Children will also like the pictures.

I was given a complimentary copy of the book by the author and Celebrate Lit and these opinions are my own.
