Product Description
Synopsis
An illustrated retelling of the story of Mary, Joseph and the baby Jesus through the keeping of an advent calendar. 24 miniature board books are arranged in sequence and nestled in a backer. The book are numbered 1-24 and are meant to be opened one per day from 1st December through to Christmas Eve. Read in sequence, the four-page books capture the mystery of the first Christmas, from Gabriel's visit to Mary to the three wise men gazing at a prophetic star to Jesus's birth in the manger. In addition, children can use the tiny books to adorn the Christmas tree.

5.0 out of 5 stars A family heirloom to treasure and use every Christmas., 26 Jan 2002
By A Customer
This is going to become a family heirloom. It comes out every Christmas and my children don't miss the chocolate ones. When they were little I used to read the books to them, but now that they are older they enjoy reading the books to me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy second hand now!!!!, 26 Jun 2008
By Mrs. Gemma S. Godivala (Leighton Buzzard, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This item has been being sold at grossly inflated prices for years and for as long I have been begging Workman Publishing to reprint it. At last they have listened. There is a new edition coming out Autumn 2008, which can be preordered on some sites already.
This calendar is one of my most precious possessions. It has been the focal point of our festivities since my oldest son's first Christmas. The reason I want to buy more is so each of my children can take one with then when they leave home.
