'Twas Nine Months Before Christmas from Joseph's view Joann Lanier Moore

In light of this, she was inspired to write a book that could stimulate children to develop character that sought after the truth of God, believing that to be the ultimate key for success. In its pages, 'Twas Nine Months Before Christmas, are demonstrated perseverance, trust, integrity, obedience, and kindness. These are all character traits that one would hope to impart in the lives of children.


This book was inspired and written on a 75-mile journey to a worship service one Sunday morning. Hoping to utilize the artistic talent of her gifted son to illustrate the book, JoAnn found that was not God's plan. Reminded that He had also given her the gift to draw, she began to creatively illustrate the scenes for the book.


To God Be All the Glory!!!
