Synopsis
'So, long after the star had set, after the angels had roosted, after the shepherds had hurried back to their sheep, there was one person still awake in a dark stable, watching over a sleeping child.' Complemented by Fabian Negrin's atmospheric illustrations, this picture book is destined to become a classic.

A touching take on the Christmas story, 27 Dec 2006

By	C. Senior (Sheffield, U.K.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Father and Son (Hardcover)

This is a beautifully-illustrated and thoughtful take on the Christmas story, told from the viewpoint of Joseph. He is overwhelmed at the idea of bringing up God's son and at a loss as to how he can match God or teach Jesus anything, being as he is both God and boy. It paints a beautiful picture of the relationship between father and son, as well as telling us much about the character of God: as creator, Father and sovereign Lord. This book takes a creative look at the birth of Jesus without adding or taking away from the truths of the Bible and would make a great present for Christmas or Baptism/Dedication, for believers or non.
