Description/Notes
This richly illustrated picture book features old Mrs. Dove who remembers the night of the birth of Christ. As the younger animals in the barn gather close around, Mrs. Dove begins her story: 'It happened here, right in this barn,' The old dove softly said. 'The Son of God was born right here, Upon this small straw bed.' The Son of God was born right here, upon this small straw bed.' Young children will love the animals that are an integral part of the story, and the rhymed text make it easy to understand. The luminous watercolors created by artist Ettlinger create the mystical majesty of the night of Jesus' birth.
