Makes a beautiful gift

I've used this book to give away as Christmas gifts to friends while living overseas. It is a beautiful book which tells the story of the birth of Christ as written in The Message, alongside the lyrics to Christmas carols and gorgeous artwork throughout. I actually received one as a gift myself while living in Turkey, but ended up giving it away. I then bought 4 more to give away! I look forward to buying one just to have for myself!
