The story of a little barn with just about enough room for someone in need.
The drawings are absolutely beautiful, they look like handmade with watercolours which I personally love.
Perfect for that lovely couple you met at church who is expecting a baby, or with a young child.

This is a cute picture book. I wanted to have more of the Christmas story but overall it is a cute story that would be fun to read with your little ones at Christmas story.

This is a sweet little story that features barnyard animals who eventually get to welcome baby Jesus in the stable. There's an element of repetition, as each animal enters the stable and is greeted by the cow, old Hannah, with an admonition to not make a certain sound (more for the cat, bark for the dog, etc). Eventually all of the sounds are made again.
I appreciated this story book, and if I had a child the right age, say one to two, would not hesitate to read it to them around Christmas time! Simplicity and repetition are key to making it age appropriate for small kids, and the familiar animals and animal sounds could be fun to help the kids remember the story, as they would be able to make the sounds at the right times.
The illustrations are clear and comforting, and I found the art style overall quite pleasant. The art is not trying to stand out enormously, but you can tell that attention and care was put into each of the animals and the humans that accompany them. I really like the art style.
I would recommend this story book to any parents looking to introduce the Christmas story to their young children.

A very sweet and cozy Christmas picture book that retells the story of Jesus' birth but also teaches us the importance of goodwill and kindness above all.
I absolutely adored the illustrations and the story's message.
A perfect engaging book to read to your children, pre-school classes or even gift to others.

What a beautiful children’s book for Christmas. The illustrations are lovely, and my children enjoyed all the animals.

This was such a sweet Christ-centered Christmas book. It was cleverly written. I loved that there was a rhyming aspect that kept kid's even more engaged. The illustrations were also so lovely.

Just Enough Room for Christmas is a sweet story of showing how Old Hannah the cow made room for many animals in her barn. The animals eventually make room for a little family to join them as well. The illustrations in this book are cute and the repetition of the words is memorable for young readers.

Just Enough Room for Christmas is a sweet and gentle retelling of the Nativity story, perfect for young children. The focus on the animals in the stable making space for one another—and eventually for Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus—adds a unique and heartwarming perspective to a well-loved Christmas story.

The themes of generosity, love, and sharing are woven in nicely, and the message about making room in our hearts for others really stands out. The illustrations are soft and inviting, creating a cozy holiday atmosphere.

That said, I found the story to be a little simple in parts—great for very young readers, but perhaps not as engaging for slightly older children. Still, it’s a lovely seasonal book that captures the true spirit of Christmas in a gentle, approachable way.

Thank you to NetGalley and GoodBooks for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

I love Christmas stories, this one is a cute twist on the birth of Christ story with animal being there making room for Him. The illustration is well done. Simple sweet story.

A very cute and simple way of telling children the story of Jesus' birth. The artwork in the book was very nicely done.

This was a very sweet retelling of Christ’s birth. Old Hannah the cow makes room in her barn for all the different animals and then for Mary and Joseph. This is a very engaging book with repetitive lines, my son enjoyed it!

A sweet, simple retelling of Christ's birth. When Old Hannah the cow is asked if she can share her tiny barn with a horse, she gladly makes room...but when the horse, the goat, the dog, the cat, AND the mouse all need a place to keep warm, will there be enough room? And what about the two humans (one of whom is about to have a baby!) who need a place to stay?

Through cozy illustrations and catchy rhymes, the story of the first Christmas is told anew for young ones.

A really cute variation on the original Christmas story. The illustrations are incredibly cute. Good one for kids.

With cozy, classic holiday artwork and a heartwarming message, this story captures what matters most at Christmas—making space for love. It’s simple, sweet, and beautifully illustrated to feel like a warm cup of cocoa. Reminds me of Small One story as a kid.

My daughter loves reading Christmas stories in winter, so when I saw this charming cover, I knew right away that we needed this book!

Old Hannah the cow lives alone in a tiny barn in Bethlehem, but when the weather gets cold, different animals come to her for shelter. There isn’t much room in the barn, but Old Hannah never turns anyone away.

This is a very sweet and heartwarming story. It teaches the importance of kindness and helping one another, while also reminding readers of the true meaning of Christmas—the birth of Jesus Christ.

The illustrations are beautiful and help children clearly visualize what’s happening in the story.

My daughter really enjoyed it, and when the book is officially published, we’ll definitely be getting a physical copy!

Thank you to NetGalley and Skyhorse Publishing (Good Books) for this eARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

Cute and perfect for young kids. My son loved it but was more interested in the great artwork than the words. He is only two so I think this book is better for older kids. This is going to be a perfect Christmas story and gift for my friend with older kids.

This was the cutest story ever, and it truly tugged at my heartstrings. From the first page to the last, I found myself smiling and feeling warm inside. The artwork was absolutely stunning, bringing the story to life in the most beautiful way. Each illustration perfectly complemented the heartwarming narrative, making the entire experience even more special.

What I loved most about this book was how it captured the true spirit of Christmas. The message was clear and powerful: it's about helping others, taking people in, and showing care and kindness. The theme of "there is just enough room for everyone" resonated deeply with me, reminding us all that love and generosity know no bounds.

This is a perfect read for anyone wanting to remember the true meaning of Christmas. Whether you're sharing it with children or reading it for your own enjoyment, this book is bound to leave you with a warm, fulfilled feeling that lasts long after you've turned the last page. Highly recommended for those who cherish the season of giving!

Simple. Heartwarming. Perfect.

This book cuts through all the frills and extras that often accompany Christmas and gets right to the heart of it: giving. Both to be giving of yourself and to be giving of what you have.

This book reminded me that sometimes to get the deepest points across we should choose the simplest means to tell it. Teach it through lowly animals in a book written for children. And yet: this timely message is one we all should hear.

Lovely illustrations and a wonderful message.

This book was too cute! Enough room for everyone <3 Teaches kindness and sharing space. Welcoming others even if you have little room.

On a freezing cold night, Hannah the cow gets multiple knocks on her barn door of other animals seeking shelter from the cold. She believes the barn to be just enough room for one animal, but as she opens her doors to each additional animal, there is “just enough” room to fit them all. Just Enough Room for Christmas is a beautifully illustrated, sweet story that teaches lessons of compassion for others, kindness, respect, and ultimately the birth of Jesus Christ. A very cute story to help remind little ones of the real reason we celebrate Christmas. I will definitely purchase a hard copy of this book once published to add to our Christmas book collection!
