Review: 4/5yo adores this scripturally accurate book! - Bought this last Christmas for my then 4yo son. We usually do a seasonal-ish theme for a book rotation with his books every couple of months, but he loved this one so much it stayed out even throughout the rest of the year. He’s now 5yo as we approach our first anniversary of having this book and he loves this now more than ever. He will get it, sit and flip through it all on his own (he does this with several books but this is a frequent choice). I love how this book displays scripturally accurate illustrations! So many kids’ books+Bibles use inaccurate illustrations and it’s a pet peeve of mine, but this book shows angels without wings and portrayed as mostly light, and it also shows the wise men coming later—not at the nativity with Jesus as an infant, but to their home with him as a toddler—so I especially appreciate these accurate depictions. For us personally, when we started reading this, it was a little tricky at first cause we honestly hadn't talked about kings much so the idea of what a king was may have still been out of his understanding just a bit but not so much that he couldn’t grasp it as we talked about it at other times and discussed it as we read and related it to other leaders. We have multiple books from this “series” such as The Garden, The Curtain , & The Cross and their book on prayer (prayer: anytime, any place, anywhere maybe is the title?); the former has also been a huge hit with our son, though the latter wasn’t his favorite he still enjoys it and occasionally requests it, but this book (of the 3) has definitely been his top pick! I also love how they have the board book for younger kids/toddlers and the wordier paperback versions for older kids. We definitely are in the paperback category for our boy but we also have both versions of the garden, curtain, & cross and it was good for a shorter read or when needing less words and more to the point. Not sure how this board book version compares, but we have seen this be a very positive plus with these books to have both versions and have gifted many board books versions to family or babies at church. Can’t wait to get him another of these books this Christmas to keep adding to his collection that fuels knowledge of and interest and love for our Lord! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #63,733 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #12 in Christmas (Books) #350 in Christian Family & Relationships #6,717 in Children's Growing Up & Facts of Life Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 1,347 Reviews | ## Images ![The Christmas Promise Storybook - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ItvdQZoyL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Christmas Book! *by M***X on June 11, 2025* The Christmas Promise Board Book is a delightful introduction to the true meaning of Christmas for young children.

Good theology, tying the Old Testament in with the New and the story of Jesus. The pictures are cute and probably mostly accurate. I particularly love that Jesus is a toddler when the wise men arrive! I’ve bought this as gifts multiple times and will continue to!!
