This is a beautiful written and illustrated book. It shows a new perspective on that special night. I love the simplistic view the author took on Christmas: how nature provided it's own decorations for Christ's birth. While it is not particularly for toddlers, I would highly recommend it to children and adults.

This book was OK but not one I would recommend to be read with preschoolers in a school or church setting. There were too many "what if's" that took away from nativity story. Perhaps these things happened; maybe they didn't. But there was no mention of why this night or this baby was so special to mankind.
