Journey through the classic Christmas song, "Angels We Have Heard On High" towards the Nativity of our Lord! The song, which has its origins in 18th century France, and was paraphrased and retitled by Father James Chadwick (a Roman Catholic bishop)in 1862, has been brought to life in a new and enchanting way by award-winning illustrator Chantal Baros. This lovely book will fill your home and your Christmas season with joy!
A perfect addition to any mini Catholic library!
A great book for children of all ages.
Book measures roughly 6 inches tall and 6 inches wide with thick board book pages in different shapes to create a 3D landscape! There are four spreads in total, plus the front and back covers.
I purchased this board book to share the faith with my little grandchildren. It is one of my favourite Hymns . I also purchased the Nativity play set and St Elizabeth doll because their mother was expecting (Baby brother was born just a few days after the play sets had arrived- born at 38 weeks but is lovely and healthy thanks be to God) and had a good ' baby bump' I love how one can talk to the children about a whole host ( pun intended ) of subjects by ' layering' multiple items on the same subject , book , dolls , puzzle, matching game. After I had sung to our eldest Grandaughter ( 4 on the feast of the little flower) and described the story ( they have a ' little people' Nativity set that they love to play with as well) . I personally have little Nativity statues set up around the house as a constant reminder. Shortly after she was singing the hymn with the book and has used it as part of the Nativity scene. Absolutely beautiful and perfect toddler friendly art work.
I have a collection of these shaped board books from Shining Light Dolls. They are well made, beautifully designed. You can tell a great deal of care went in to designing these books. Can’t wait for the next one!
We ordered these for our Kindergarten classes at Holy Family Catholic School in Jacksonville, FL. It’s hard to find good books these days! This board book is made with great quality, beautiful images, and makes an excellent little gift for our young learners this season. Thank you so much!
It’s lovely and a great opportunity for multi-sensory sharing by sing along or playing a recording of the carol. Also easy to read while holding my six month old grand in my lap.
Happy to order this beauty for my great granddaughter's First BD! I chose it because both her grandmothers loved Christmas and music , and Baby C loves books. Total win. I did not open it as it was wrapped in a plastic wrap to prevent damage and it was a gift. Order received promptly as promised with very thoughtful packaging to prevent damage. I will be ordering more.
Great book that our kids love! Only negative is the book falls apart easily - on our 2nd copy and each time the binding fell off the book within 3 weeks.
This book is so thick and high quality. The illustrations are absolutely adorable. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of a small typo.
