A new musical board book with sweet, reverent art. Certain poor shepherds, this carol says, were the first to hear news of the world-changing birth in a lowly stable. The beloved Christmas classic, 'The First Noel,' is sweetly illustrated here by Nathalie Beauvois. Her charming reverent artwork accompanies the lyrics, which tell the story of the events surrounding Jesus' birth -- from the announcement to the shepherds, to the appearance of the star and the wise men's worship. The melody of the song plays when the button is pushed. Children will love reading the words, looking at the illustrations, and hearing the music play. This new sound book will be a Christmastime classic for years to come.
