Review by Martha Robinson
The Friendly Beasts, by John Blumen, illustrated by Karen Blumen. Paperback, 32 pages, $6.99. Published by Augsburg books. Please support our site by buying through HomeschoolChristian.com's Amazon link.
The Friendly Beasts portrays the Christmas Story in rhyme form set to music. The vibrant illustrations on each page are sure to captivate children. The story reveals what the different animals in the barn did to help baby Jesus, from the donkey that carried Mary to the doves that cooed Him to sleep. Musical scores and the complete lyrics are included, as well as an activity page that will help bring families together during the holiday season.
