Good King Wenceslas

This book is BEAUTIFULLY illustrated!

It explains the Christmas song we sing each year, but until now, at least I, never really understood.

What a beautiful way to teach about the giving of Christmastime and the example of one King to his page.

I also LOVED the side notes explaining "St. Stephen's Day" and what a " Page boy" is;

Along with "life in a castle" and "Christmas celebrations in the middle ages."

The book is wonderful in and of itself,

But there is more!!!

You also get a DVD of Jane Seymour telling this story with the Mormon Tabernacle singing the song and amazing dancers performing.

A true treasure book for Christmas!
