Publisher's Synopsis
The First Christmas by Denis O'Shea is a book that tells the story of the birth of Jesus Christ. It is a retelling of the biblical account of the Nativity, beginning with the announcement of the angel Gabriel to Mary that she would bear a son. The book follows Mary and Joseph's journey to Bethlehem, where they find no room at the inn and end up giving birth to Jesus in a stable. The story continues with the visit of the shepherds and the Wise Men, who come to pay homage to the newborn king. The book is beautifully illustrated with colorful and detailed paintings that capture the spirit of the Christmas season. It is a perfect book for families to read together during the holiday season, and for children to learn about the true meaning of Christmas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
