It’s here! The cover reveal for my debut Christmas picture book! Meanwhile Back at the Manger (Ambassador International) arrives November 18 — and I can’t wait! Would you read this Christmas book with your kids or grandkids, nieces or nephews? Let me know below!

Brenda Covert@TheBrendaCovert · Jul 26

It is! It's a picture book re-telling of the Christmas story from the point of view of a stable boy who would rather fish than tend the stable. Will his choice lead him to miss the miracle in the manger?

Wow I will love to see that and before is the book about the birth of Jesus?

Writing Tip #4: The dialogue between characters should sound natural, but also purposeful. Every line should either develop the character, move the plot forward, or reveal important information.

Today is a good day to relax those tense muscles and rest. Give your mind and body some peace. A prayer of thanksgiving is a restful place to start.
