Gardens, Bees and Trees by Rebecca Even/12 Days Of Christmas/It’s Here! A New Way to Journey from the Jesse Tree to Epiphany with Your Children

(And Oh, How My Heart Is Rejoicing!)

Sweet friends, I have been counting the days to share this with you — and today is finally the day! With so much joy (and just a few happy tears), I get to announce the release of my newest children’s devotional:

From the Jesse Tree to Epiphany: 41 Advent and Christmas Bible Rhymes for Kids

This book was written for families just like yours — for moms with busy hearts, for grandmothers who long to pass the faith on, for teachers and catechists shaping young souls, and especially for children who learn best through story, rhythm, and wonder.

A Journey Through the Greatest Story Ever Told

This devotional invites families on a joyful journey through salvation history, beginning with the Jesse Tree and continuing all the way through the Twelve Days of Christmas to Epiphany.

Each day unfolds like a storybook:

  • Gentle, kid-friendly biblical rhymes
  • Short Scripture reflections
  • Whimsical illustrations that draw children into the mystery of God’s promises

Together, families walk from:
Creation → Promise → Prophecy → Nativity → Revelation

Children meet beloved figures from the Bible — Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Ruth, David, Isaiah, Mary, Joseph, the shepherds, and the Magi — each one pointing straight to Jesus, the Root of Jesse and the Light of the World.

Designed for Real Family Life

My deepest hope was to create a devotional that doesn’t add pressure — but instead creates peace.

This is a book you can:

  • Read at breakfast
  • Pray with at bedtime
  • Build into your Jesse Tree routine
  • Carry through all 12 Days of Christmas

Parents and grandparents tell me they love how it turns daily prayer into a heart-warming family ritual, blending faith, creativity, and storytelling in a way children truly remember.

A Seamless Bridge from Advent to Christmas Joy

This new release beautifully complements my earlier Christmas storybook and gives families a full, continuous path:

  • From waiting…
  • To wonder…
  • To worship…
  • To Epiphany joy.

It restores the sacred rhythm of the Church year in a way children can understand and love.

Where to Find the Book

You can learn more and find the book through my ministry at HowToKeepChristInAdvent.com, along with free Advent resources, printables, and family guides to help you begin right away.


Friends, thank you for walking this road of faith with me — candle by candle, story by story, child by child. My prayer is that this little book brings great grace into your homes this Advent and Christmas.

With joyful hope,
Rebecca ✨

Frequently Asked Questions

How can we wait in joyful hope for the coming of Christ the King during Advent?

By celebrating each day with Scripture, prayer, and Jesse Tree ornaments, embracing acts of love, and remembering that Christmas begins with Christ’s coming, not just on December 25th.

What Is an Advent Wreath?

An Advent wreath is a circle of evergreen branches with four candles—three purple and one rose—used by Catholics and many Christian families to mark the four weeks of Advent. Each candle represents a theme of the season (Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love), and lighting them week by week helps us prepare our hearts for the coming of Jesus, the Light of the World.

What is Advent?

Advent is a Christian season of anticipation and preparation before Christmas, inviting us to reflect, pray, and wait in joyful hope for Jesus’ birth and His Second Coming.
