This picture book brings alive the Christmas story in verse with beautiful, original artwork. Readers learn by rhythm and rhyme what took place on the first Christmas, when Jesus Christ, our Savior, was born. This picture book interprets the scriptural events in verse form from the viewpoint of shepherd families enroute to Bethlehem. "Suddenly then, the stars shone bright. They filled the sky with glorious light." The book's accompanying watercolor and ink illustrations bring the story alive, from camels and slingshots to beautiful angels and sparkly baby eyes. God's children of all ages can read this book to bring to mind again the humble, yet glorious, origins of Baby Jesus.
