"Hurry! Hurry! Have You Heard?" is written by Laura Krauss Melmed and illustrated by our own, Jane Reimer Dyer '71

Adults and children alike will love this beautifully illustrated book and signed for us in December 2008 when Jane was on campus giving a presentation with the Art Department.

Everyone remembers the freindly beasts of the stable at Christmas, but what of the creatures of field and forest?  From her perch in the rafters, a small bird's heart fills with love.  Out over the countryside she flies, carrying the glad tidings.  "Hurry! Hurry! Have you heard?  A child was born tonight, and every creature large or small is precious in his sight.
