A CHRISTMAS MANGER

Publisher: Houghton Mifflin

Another Uncle Gu play book. Remember the farm and circus books in the series? Unusual feature in that no scissors are required for the cut-outs — they are perforated and push out of the sheets. The back of the book makes the stage set. This should be a particularly good Christmas item, and one copy of the book might well be taken over by shop or library and used as display material for a Christmas window, for here is a Christmas creche, with the inside cover the manger and stable, and the animals and figures of the New Testament story on the cut-out pages.
