The First Noelle

On her very first night, a tiny lamb hears voices calling, “Noel, Noel!” She hasn’t been given a name yet, so she wonders if they might be calling for her. She follows the shepherds through the dark to a little stable in Bethlehem, where she finds another newborn tucked into a manger.

The First Noelle by Rory Noelle tells the story of the first Christmas through the eyes of a lamb who is new to the world herself. Her small misunderstanding gives little readers a way into the Nativity as they follow her from the shepherds’ fields to the place where baby Jesus lies. It’s her first night in the world, and his, too.

This illustrated board book is made for sharing with babies and toddlers. Read it on Christmas Eve, open it beside the family Nativity set, or tuck it into a baby’s first Christmas gift.
