'Twas the Night - Hardcover

by William Dean (Author), Sarah Lowe (Illustrator)

A retelling of the beloved Christmas poem, capturing the true meaning of Christmas: Jesus.

'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the land,
not a creature suspected that God became man.

So hear now the story that tells of God's grace:
long ago was the time, Bethlehem was the place.

In the spirit of Clement C. Moore's well-loved poem, this retelling of Luke 2 was written in 2018 for a church Christmas program. It has been lovingly brought to life by Sarah Lowe's artistry. Originally read aloud to children who were nestled by a Christmas tree, this true story is for sharing the joy of Christmas with your little ones year after year.

Features include:

• Rhyming text which makes it an easy read-aloud book
• Christmas classic poem with the true meaning of Christmas: Jesus
• Accurate retelling of the night before Christmas (no wise men, only shepherd visitors)
• Warm, classic illustrations portray Middle-Eastern characters for a historically accurate representation
