Book Review: A Very Merry Christmas Prayer

Tracy / November 1, 2015

A Very Merry Christmas Prayer (A Time to Pray) arrived this month in my mailbox!

I have to say, I’ve had the hardest time not wanting to dive into Christmas. The bug has hit early this year!

This is a charming book. At a time of year when it is easy for children to think about what they want, it reminds us to give thanks to God for His many gifts and especially of His son, Jesus.

Some features of A Very Merry Christmas Prayer:

  • Board Book perfect for toddlers (but some of my older children loved it, too!)
  • Shaped book (my children loved this feature- it added interest for their little hands!)
  • Glitter accents on the cover
  • Beautiful illustrations (the snow scenes are so beautiful, I found myself looking at all the little snowflakes)
  • The entire story points back to celebrating the birth of Christ while we go about the celebration of the Christmas season.

From the back of the book:

“These little woodland animals are full of joy over so many blessings from twinkling lights and sparkling snowflakes to family fun and the gift of God’s love. Join the celebration with gratitude and make this your own very merry Christmas prayer!”
