Read and Discover The Blessing
We have enjoyed this story for years. And now I pass it on to the next generation in our family. It is so joyous to share this story with them, and to read it to them and talk about it afterwards. The pictures are beautiful, too.It is good to discover the blessings that may come from a missed opportunity, or a sad or bad situation. But I always say, Look For The Good. This book finds the blessing. I recommend it.

Nice Christmas book.
Great Christmas book. I buy a new book every year for Christmas. Nice story and illustrations are great.
Maxine Holden –
Sweet story
This is a really cute book. I love the illustrations. It is not directly the nativity story, but a creative story about the animals preparing for a special arrival. I appreciated the unique take. I’ve enjoyed reading it to my little ones this holiday season.

ErinAnne –
Beautiful book to celebrate the beautiful Messiah
So I was looking for a book that would teach my daughter about the true meaning of Christmas, the birth of Jesus Christ and this book did it to a T. Really well-made, hardcover and beautiful illustrations with really cute captions as you can see in the photos. Definitely worth the not even six dollars I paid for it so I would highly recommend. This book is the perfect rendition of the birth of Jesus Christ and the beauty that surrounded it.💜💜💜

Good story line
This was an amazing story to help explain to my students how the birth of Jesus came to be! The only thing that I wasn’t a huge fan of was the talking animals

A beautiful story about animals loving one another and working together despite differences~to prepare the stable for the arrival of baby Jesus! The illustrations are absolutely lovely!
Bonnie –
Sadly we live in a world where it’s becoming more and more difficult to find quality reading material for kids about Jesus and the love of God but I’m glad I found these.
Flute Teacher –
Very fast, overnight delivery. Book has great art, but quite a New-Age take on the Nativity story. I never would have bought it had I read it first. The animals in the stable are actually arguing about how to clean up before the special baby arrives. Then Mother Star intervenes and they cooperate and clean the stable – just a very odd story line.
