This is a lovely, classic book that has been enjoyed by families for decades. The only text is that from the King James Version. I highly recommend this one for reading at Christmas. The illustrations by the Petershams are reverent and don't include anything jarring.

This book is beautiful. It seamlessly weaves together the 2 gospel accounts of the birth of Jesus Christ in the beautiful King James Bible language. The illustrations are Middle Eastern in style and quite engaging. A delight, especially at Christmas time!

This classic book was a part of my father's childhood, and my own. I was truly grateful to be able to find this edition, which I purchased for my own three children. The copy is exactly as I remember, the illustrations are sumptuous and the story very moving in its direct simplicity. Truly a beutiful book for any one who celebrates Christmas.
