Andy Griffith (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 9, 2003

If Jesus promised to spend Christmas with you, how would you prepare? And when needy neighbors interrupted your preparations, how would you react?

The hero in this classic story of delight and despair, sacrifice and celebration shows us the beauty of a life where Jesus is not just a guest in the home, but a resident in the heart. American icon Andy Griffith brings new life to this timeless tale. Included in the back cover of the book is a CD which has a narrative of the story by Andy Griffith. This special CD also features Andy singing Go Tell It On The Mountain, from his latest Christmas album.

Just by reading this book, you'll know why The Andy Griffith Show is still on the air. He is such an awesome person and there are few like him in the entertainment industry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Andy's Guest, July 16, 2008

This review is from: The Christmas Guest (Hardcover)

Andy Griffith created a small Christmas fable about a lonely man who is to have GOD to Christmas at his home. This tale touches the heart as well as the soul. On each page is a illustration reflection of Christmas.

Included in this package is a two cut CD. The first cut is Andy and a chorus singing "Go Telling on the Mountain". The second cut is Andy telling the story. It is a grandfatherly type narration

It is worth sharing on Christmas and all during the year
