A Yuletide Ice Cube Fair

It's that wonderful time of year again—the Yuletide Ice Cube Fair! It's a time of festivity and fun as veggies gather to munch on snow cones, slurp down Slushies, and ice skate on the frozen pond. But the greatest part of all is the Ice Cube Carving Contest! The veggies have been busy! They've carved Christmas feasts, trees, angels, and more. Each one is trying to outdo the other in an effort to win the grand prize! But the smallest of all these ice entries is a carving done by Junior Asparagus—a tiny stable with a shepherd on one knee. Kids will discover that it's not what's grand, or bigger, or best that's most important on Christmas—it's Jesus! Sunday morning values, Saturday morning fun. Now that's the Big Idea! Through imaginative and innovative products, Zonderkidz is feeding young souls

This VeggieTales board book is a countdown to Christmas fun as kids get ready to share God's love with their favorite characters.
