The hustle and bustle of Christmas and its worldly focus on Santa Claus and gifts can make it challenging to teach children the origin of Christmas and what it means for them. This story 'Twas The Night, was originally penned by Michelle Joy, for her four-year-old son and it became a family Christmas eve tradition. It tells the tale of Jesus’ birth in a poetic style that children enjoy. The classic style illustrations capture the scenes from the nativity and present-day celebrations with a nod to the Caribbean way of marking the festival. The lyrical text and rich pictures bring significance to the reason for the season. This classic story with a vintage feel will be part of your advent tradition for generations.
