A Lovely Christmas Collection -- Peace on Earth


I surely wish with all my heart, This day of Jesus’ birth, That peace and love and happiness Soon cover all the earth.

Mary Engelbreit rings in the holiday with a Christmas collection that includes many of her favorite carols, the story of Jesus' birth, and beloved poems that touch the heart and celebrate the miracle of the season.

***********************************

This collection of Christmas carols, poems, scripture, and short stories put together by Mary Engelbriet is a lovely piece to be enjoyed during the Christmas season.  Readers will find familiar Christmas carols and some not-so-familiar passages that draw minds and hearts to the true story of Christmas.  Although Peace on Earth is marketed for ages 4-8, some of the readings might not be easily understood or appealing to that age group.  The colorful, detailed illustrations, though, make the book a visual delight for young and old alike. 

Thanks to BookSneeze blogger program for providing a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
