A little angel has been chosen to find the best Christmas present this year, only he doesn't know where to begin looking. The wise old rabbit offers to help, and what follows is a marvelous exchange of stories, as the rabbit and the angel tell each other tales of gifts and deeds that illustrate the spirit of Christmas. Could it be that this is the best Christmas present of all, sharing stories and spending time together? These wonderful short tales, one for each day of Advent, are accompanied by lovely illustrations from fourteen internationally accomplished artists. And like the best Christmas present, this book just might inspire families to start a new holiday tradition--to count the days to Christmas by reading together!
Twenty four stories for twentyfour days before Christmas...Read a story every evening after dinner. A great family hour or before bedtime story time. Stories are version of international traditional tales. Each have a special lesson or message. I bought this book after reading a library book. It was special enough that I wanted my own copy. The illustrations are beautiful too. While it is a children's book, many adults will enjoy it too.
Great Book
