This holiday audio book—part of the Legends series from Zonderkidz—explores the true story behind the tradition of hanging and filling Christmas stockings. Kids will learn about what it means to give to others, and how they can share God's love during the Christmas season.

You and your children can discover:

  • How the Christmas stocking was inspired by the life of Saint Nicolas, and why it became a way to give to those in need
  • Why giving is better than receiving, and the joy that comes when we give someone a present
  • Why we still hang stockings on the mantel today
  • Peter has saved up for a special boat at the toy shop. But when it looks like his dad won't be home in time for Christmas with the money his family needs for gifts, he hears the story of how a man named Nicolas secretly gave all his gold to three poor girls. Peter then has to decide what to do with money he's saved.

    The Legend of the Christmas Stocking is:

  • Perfect as a gift for boys and girls ages 4-8, grandchildren, and nieces and nephews
  • Ideal as a family reading tradition for Advent, Christmas, or anytime in the holiday season
  • Great as a gift for people who love the history behind Christmas and holiday traditions
