Christmas time is exciting and filled with anticipation and often stress. Will we get what we want? Will we be able to find just the right gift for everyone? Many get caught up in the gift giving and tend to forget the real meaning of the holiday. Author John McCallum's How the Lord Sent Christmas offers an imaginative, poetic retelling of the Christmas story in a fresh way that will surprise and delight children and adults. Besides being a reminder of why we really celebrate Christmas, some readers may find it a nonthreatening way to share the Christmas story with their non-Christian friends. Most people have traditions associated with Christmas. Make the beautifully illustrated How the Lord Sent Christmas a new holiday tradition.
