Description
- By Julia Cunningham and pictures by Anita Lobel
- Hardback
- From Publishers Weekly
In this attractive volume, all lowly creatures become respected equals, transformed by the joyous arrival of the Christ child. Art and design merit a look, along with Cunningham's (Drop Dead!) evocative free-verse poems. The language is sophisticated and stirring ("I am a shadow, gray, gray, gray," begins the eponymous poem), and each work nestles cozily within the rustic textures of Lobel's (On Market Street) dark-hued ink-and-watercolor compositions. Gently smiling animals, angels and shepherds behold the miracle in their midst. Ages 4-up. - Donated by Lee Jaffurs
