The Mighty, Mighty King Christmas Book

I found this book great for a kid's story around Christmas time. I used it for church and the kids loved joining in, saying 'Mighty Mighty King' together. It's a good size to hold and read and show the pictures at the same time. I now keep it and promote it as a resource for Christmas events.

full of meaning that a child can understand.\r\n\r\nA friend of mine, on receiving this book, said she was going to use it in her visits to the nursing home as it so clearly told the whole Gospel really.\r\n\r\nThe illustrations enhance the story with reality and humour mixed in, along with pathos. I can see children asking to read this book over and over again, and I love it myself, as a grandmother. Read LessRead less about Penn tells this story for young
