The Christmas Elephant: a Nativity Story
Original price was: $16.99.Current price is: $14.97.

Ellie wants to be an elephant in the Christmas play but her know-it-all sister says she’ll ruin everything. When Baby Jesus goes missing, Ellie must find him, or the play will be ruined (but not because Ellie is an elephant)!

Ellie thinks outside the box. She stands her ground and remains in her elephant costume even when her older sister—and director of this year’s Christmas play— demands she change into a sheep costume. The theme of standing up for your own uniqueness sends a subtle message to children that they can fit in anywhere if they persevere and don’t give in to peer pressure. Ellie’s approach to standing her ground is entertaining and empowering. There is also a teaching moment for the bossy sister who comes to see that everything doesn’t have to work out the way she planned in order to be wonderful. The Christmas Elephant is an ideal addition for family, preschool, elementary school, and community library Christmas picture book collections.

This unique holiday book is perfect for:
Children ages 3-8
Sharing the story of Christmas through a memorable narrative text and engaging, whimsical illustrations
Christmas gifts, including stocking stuffers and church ministry outreach
Inspiring discussion and dialogue with parents, grandparents, friends, and teachers Christmas celebrations, church ministry outreach, and Advent discussions
Sparking age-appropriate conversations about Christmas, self-esteem, Jesus’ birth, and helping others.

A profound exploration of the Bible’s Christmas story that delivers surprising insights to reawaken the ancient wonder of the holiday season.

Christmas, of all seasons in the year, should be the time where true meaning can be found. However, by the end of December many attest to experiencing exhaustion rather than significance, stress rather than joy, and more consumer debt than spiritual abundance.

Is this really what the Christmas story offers the world? Pastor AJ Sherrill does not think so. Rediscovering Christmas will help you discover there is more meaning and mystery to the Christmas story than we ever imagined.

In this enlightening work, you will find:
fresh, scriptural insights to reawaken deeper meaning for the Christmas season
an exploration of different biblical characters that corresponds to Advent or Christmas, including Mary, Joseph, the non-existent inn keeper, Zechariah, John the Baptist, Gabriel, the shepherds, Magi, Herod, Caesar, Simeon, and Anna
an evergreen story to which you will return annually to refresh your mind about the wonder of Christmas
delightful perspectives to rekindle your heart as to how to receive God’s greatest gift as the day of Christ’s return approaches
a window into the wider field of God’s love, empowering you to participate in the new creation story launched at Christmas and extending far beyond December 25 into the rest of the year
creative line drawings that invite you to visually enter the narrative of each chapter

Rediscovering Christmas will reacquaint you with the story you thought you knew and encourage you to ponder the true meaning of the season.
