ATLANTA, GA/September 17, 2025— Beloved TV personality and best-selling author Kim Gravel is bringing heart and holiday magic to bookshelves this season with the release of her brand-new children’s Christmas storybook, Maribelle and the Manger, officially launching October 7, 2025 — and now available for pre-order exclusively at www.MaribelleAndTheManger.com.
Perfect for children and families, this beautifully illustrated story follows five faithful friends on a magical journey to witness the birth of Jesus. With themes of friendship, courage, unity, and light, Maribelle and the Manger captures the true spirit of Christmas and is destined to become a cherished family tradition.
“Maribelle and the Manger came straight from my heart,” says Kim Gravel. “It’s more than just a Christmas story. It’s a message of hope, light, and faith. I wrote it for families who want to slow down and reconnect with what really matters during the holidays. My dream is that this book becomes part of your family’s Christmas tradition. The kind of story you read together in your jammies, hot cocoa in hand, year after year.”
In addition to the pre-order availability on the website, a special holiday bundle featuring the book plus an exclusive ornament set will launch on QVC starting October 12, 2025.
