A lyrical retelling of the familiar gospel stories of the nativity.

Beautifully presented with a foil-effect dust jacket, this will be a Christmas book to treasure.

Geraldine McCaughrean's breathtakingly evocative prose brings new life to the familiar stories.


This sumptuous take on the classic Nativity story, with enduring prose and opulent, stylish illustrations, is a wonderful family keepsake and a delight to read alone or aloud in homes, schools and churches.

Sophy Williams - twice highly commended for the Reader's Digest Young Illustrators Award - is celebrated for her sensitive illustrations, which perfectly match Geraldine's sophisticated prose.
