If I had the money, I’d get a copy of this book for all the families at our church for Christmas.  It’s that good.  A Child Is Born is a comic book retelling of the Christmas story.  The illustrations are detailed, nicely colored, and realistic.  Some of the images are quite striking because of how life-like they are.  Case in point–the image on the front cover.  You can really convey the feeling of a story to kids through pictures, and this book does just that.  I’m sure that this book will become an instant Christmas classic with any family that checks it out.  Since I just have the one copy, I might just leave it sitting out in kid’s church for the boys to peruse.  They can’t resist a good comic book.
