I love Sally Lloyd-Jones. She has such a gift for sharing scripture with children in a poetic and artistic form. Using anticipation this story creates a magical setting. I love the words within and I am sure this will become a seasonal favorite.

However I am not in love with the artistry in this one as I find the crackles distracting and unappealing.

This book is a great way to show how the whole world anticipated and showed excitement for the joy of the Christ one to come, from the skies to the meadows and every creature beyond and between.
