Book Review: The Princess and the Kiss: The Three Gifts of Christmas by Jennie Bishop
My 6 year-old daughter and I read a couple of books most nights. One night, we read only this as it provided the opportunity to talk about the things we have and what we need.
I genuinely liked the message of this wholesome children’s book. The pictures are delightful and my daughter loved the princess as much as I respected the parent’s decision to keep her Christmas presents to three one year. To be a glorified princess, one must act like one. As with most Christmas books, this is based on the birth of Jesus and the importance of the three gifts that were brought to baby Jesus by the wise men the night of His glorious birth. What is the bottom line? It is better to give than receive. My daughter and I then talked about things that she may be able to give up helping the lives of those less fortunate.
This is a wonderful, charming addition to any Christmas time ritual.
We give this book 4 STACKS!
The Princess and the Kiss: The Three Gifts is Christmas will be avaliable August 1, 2010
