A sprinkle of stars
A flock of sheep
A shadowed wall.
A host of angels
A warmth of doves
A royal crown.
A father's smile.
A mother's touch.
And a black baby Jesus.
In a series of simple, evocative images, W. Nikola-Lisa takes readers on a journey toward the Nativity, with a black baby Jesus as its centerpiece. Synthia Saint James's vibrant colorblock paintings capture the mystery and anticipation of this journey and of the birth of a newborn king.
