This book teaches children the story of the Nativity as celebrated in the Orthodox Church. Through repetition your child will learn to recognize the icon associated with the feast and understand the elements within the icon. Children will also learn to recognize certain phrases in the Liturgical celebration of the feast and how all of these Traditions tie together with the narrative of the story. We encourage you to refer back to the icon when reading this book to help younger children make this connection. It is our hope that this book and others produced by St. Stylianos Books will provide a useful tool to help parents educate children in the faith of the Orthodox Church.
