This is a delightful story that kids and families will love. Ellie dreams of being an elephant in the church Christmas play, but her big sister thinks it’s a silly idea. Through Ellie’s determination and creativity, the story gently points readers to the true meaning of Christmas—celebrating Jesus.

Beautifully illustrated, funny and full of great conversation prompts. There’s even a bible connection and fun facts about elephants and the first Christmas at the end!  The authour has some free downloadable activities to go along with it on mariaantoniawrites.com

This book is perfect for cozy story times at home or in children’s ministry settings. The Christmas Elephant is a wonderful way to remind kids (and grown-ups!) of the joy and purpose of the Christmas season.
