The First Noel: A Tale of Friendship by Clare Johnson is a heartwarming and beautiful story agony friendship in the face of adversity. It is a lovely retelling and comes with some stunning pictures to illustrate the words the author has penned. This felt like such a lovely family story, one that I would happily read to my daughter and is one that I picture reading each year around Christmas as a new tradition.
I Think having the pictures there really helped to keep my little one interested as well - she kept pointing out different things and commenting as we went along. Reading it for myself I found it to be sweet story that I could really get behind. This is a well written book and it is certainly worth your time.
