Book: “God Gave Us Christmas” by Lisa Tawn Bergren
I was excited a few weeks ago when God Gave Us Christmas by Lisa Tawn Bergren went on sale and we could buy this book for the girls with our Amazon Gift Cards I earned from Swagbucks to learn more about how to get started go here. Our family has a couple other books by Lisa that the girls really enjoy (God Gave us the World, God Gave Us Love , and God Gave Us Heaven) . I like that the books encourage the kids to ask questions and gives the credit back to God. Even though the girls haven’t received this book yet I read it as soon as it arrived and was thrilled to find it was written much along the same lines of the other books we enjoy from Lisa Bergren.
This is a great children’s book that emphasizes the true meaning of Christmas. The author created a pretty steady stream of “Questions” and “Answers” dialogue between Little Cub and her parents. The book addresses some of the most common questions kids will ask around the Holiday Season such as “Who ‘vented Christmas? Was it Santa?” Although Santa Claus, Frosty, and the other traditional Christmas stories are neat, it is important that our children know the true reason why we celebrate Christmas.
God Gave Us Christmas is a wonderful book to give as a gift to children. If you are looking at buying a Christmas book for fun or as a gift this season you should check this one out. You can also get it from the library to read with your kids.
