It’s December 1st and it’s never too early to prepare for Christmas. Today I’m reviewing Holy Stable: Celebrate the Miracle by Heidi Hanseen. A copy was provided to me by MediaGuests.
About the Book
Holy Stable: Celebrate the Miracle restores the tender joys of the season! Discover how sharing the gift of Jesus’ love blesses relationships, as you enjoy the magic of children’s narration, original music and song. Mary and Joseph’s devotion to God and sublime caring for each other will bring you to experience the story of Baby Jesus’ birth as never before.
Holy Stable is more than just a Christmas “play”! It has everything an actual pageant has and is a perfect highlight to our Christmas season!
Holy Stable brings about inspired memories, the play adapts for a few participants or a larger group and for use with or without your own vocal talent. Harp, wooden flute and violin instrumentals come with and without vocals and narration and are coordinated with the innovative script, including tips, which are offered to you as a downloadable bonus gift at www.holystable.com.
About the Author
Heidi is a mother of eight and first time author. Her long held interests in studying scripture, benefiting relationships, drama, music, artistic expression and nurturing love came together in this multi-media experience. She’s an avid reader and writer and has conducted children’s music and participated in choirs for many years.
With the desire to create more cherished Christmas memories and promote a deeper connection to the Savior, Heidi produced Holy Stable: Celebrate the Miracle…Story, Music, Nativity Play.
My Review
I had the chance to get an early peek at this book. It’s actually a book and CD set. If you have ever wanted to have a nativity play or scene acted out for your Christmas gathering, this could be just what you’re looking for.
The story is a familiar one with a slightly different take. I enjoyed the story, the illustrations, and the music/words/message. There are several options on the CD to make this play work with nearly any situation or group. You can create a play at a moments notice with a few costumes and let the CD do the full narration or use it to practice and do all the narration, vocals and music within your group, or anything in between.
This is an addition to your holiday customs that is sure to touch the hearts of everyone involved in the experience. It’s a great gift to consider giving this year. The book and CD set is reasonably priced and comes in a clear package including an envelope for gifting.
