  In this all-new Christmas tale, Dasher the reindeer discovers that the only thing better than making Christmas magic is making a new friend to share it with. One bright night just before Christmas, Dasher the reindeer is out admiring the stunning colors of the northern lights when she meets George, a sweet polar bear.

The Jesus Storybook Bible is  a wonderful collection of stories based on stories within the Bible.  Each inspiring story is beautifully written with wonderful illustrations from Jacob, an accomplished illustrator,  to spark interest and to help answer questions children may have when reading the Bible.  A couple of stories that caught my attention were the story of Joseph and his brothers, and also, the story of Goliath.
