Summary:
What would the animals have said if they had been able to greet Jesus on that very first Christmas Eve? In this rich collection of poetry, all different kinds of animals get the chance to be heard. Sheep whisper softly to the Good Shepherd, a spider bows down on all eight legs, fish splash with their fins, and a little goat's lighthearted mischief makes the baby laugh. In this story of a not-so-silent night, God's unique creatures come together for the singular purpose of celebrating the birth of Jesus.
