While stargazing one night, a child learns about a special star that appeared in the sky a long time ago. This was Jesus' star. Written by Crystal Bowman, a master at rhyme, A Star for Jesus weaves the story of the Bethlehem star with biblical accuracy and charming verses. Children will be able to look at the starry sky and visualize the special star that led the wise men to the new king. Parents, grandparents, and preschool teachers will appreciate the simplicity and easy-to-read verses in this book. Together with heart-warming illustrations by Claudine Gèvry and the star-shaped die-cut, A Star for Jesus helps celebrate the miraculous birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. This 14-page, star-shaped board book measures 8.5" x 11", and is recommended for children ages 4 and under.

'God made the stars and put them up high to shine down on earth from up in the sky.' But long ago God made a special star. He put it in the sky to send a message: 'Jesus our Savior has come ...' We can look at the stars at night. And we can remember that a long time ago, Jesus' star shone among them.

Crystal Bowman loves writing books for kids. Her books come in all shapes and sizes and many of them have become best sellers. Whether her stories are written in playful rhythm and rhyme, or short sentences for beginning readers, she tries to make them so enjoyable that kids will want to read them over and over again. 'But the most important part,' she says, 'is to teach children that God loves them and cares about them very much.' SPANISH BIO: A Crystal Bowman le gusta escribir relatos y poemas. Cuando tenia diez anos, su libro favorito era una coleccion de poemas divertidos que todavia conserva. Ademas de escribir relatos, poemas y rimas, Crystal disfruta pasando tiempo con su esposo y sus hijos ya crecidos, dando largas caminatas y comiendo helados. Ellos dividen su tiempo entre Michigan y Florida. You can find Claudine diving the oceans with Technicolor fish, camel riding in the Sahara, trekking in a jungle populated with wild monkeys, or exploring the African savanna in search of huge elephants. Although adventurous, she sometimes gets scared when coming upon a giant spider or other scary beasts. At that time she heads back to the comfort of her studio, where she draws all the wonderful things she saw and dreams of her next visit to faraway lands.
