About this book
The Christmas story in fifteen King James passages, in order: Isaiah's great light and the child that is born, Bethlehem Ephratah, the angel and Mary, the manger and the shepherds, the star and the wise men, and the Word made flesh. Each passage has its own spread — the text in small print, two key words, one phrase, then every line in traceable script on four-line guides with a blank line to copy it yourself. Written in forest green and deep red. Good for Advent, for cards, and for anything you want to letter on a gift tag.
What you will write
15 passages , KJV and public domain. Each one gets key words, a phrase, and then the whole passage line by line.
