Free Coloring Page from the Artist of "My Nativity ABCs" - Child Praying

Please enjoy this special cut “scene” from “My Nativity ABCs” in the form of a free coloring page for your children. This is based on artist Alex Worthen’s original interpretation of a line from my poem, regarding what I had written that “L” means in respect to the Nativity story.

In the final version, my publisher, Cedar Fort Publishing, decided it wanted all the images to reflect the historic times when Jesus was born. So, if you flip to the "L" page of "My Nativity ABCs" you'll see that the basic structure of the page is the same, but instead of a lampshade, there's an earthen pot. Instead of curtains, there's a bare window.

You can download the coloring page by clicking on the image below and saving it to your computer, or you can download it here.

My Book is Live!

My children's book, "My Nativity ABCs," is officially available for purchase and stocked in stores (vs. pre-order). I know Seagull Bookstore in Utah already has the book stocked on their shelves. I haven't checked other stores but I know you can get it online at the following places. It was actually out of stock in several places. I thought it was a mistake but my publisher explained that these stores weren't likely expecting so many orders so early on. So thank you to my amazing friends, family, and fans of the book.

Seagull Book

Barnes and Noble

Amazon

Target

Walmart

The book is also available on several UK and Canada sites but I didn't want this list to get to unwieldy so here's the initial list!

Free coloring page from the artist of "My Nativity ABCs" - Child Reading

You can download the full page coloring page here, or right-click on the image below to save it to your computer and print it.

This coloring page is from a "cut" scene from "My Nativity ABCs," by Esther Yu Sumner (me). My publisher, Cedar Fort, decided they wanted all of the imagery for "My Nativity ABCs" to be scenes from ancient times instead of combining the imagery with contemporary scenes. So, as much as I loved artist Alex Worthen’s original interpretation of the “Q” line from my alphabet nativity story, it had to go. I really love what he did with it instead, but I'm pleased that he was willing to share this drawing as a free coloring page instead. Look at the little nativity on the nightstand! You’ll have to read “My Nativity ABCs” to find out what “Q” stands for but for now, I hope you enjoy this free coloring page.

From now until October 10, 2017, you can also enter to win one of ten free copies of "My Nativity ABCs" in a Goodreads giveaway.
