Based on this classic Christmas song, the story of how all the animals of the mangers came together for the incredible night of Baby Jesus' birth is told in a picture book with rich illustrations.

PreSchool-The classic Christmas carol is presented as a play (or perhaps a musical) by a group of homely angels and sometimes reluctant animals. The angels, who look like trolls with their big noses and feet, bring mother animals and their offspring onstage, using ropes and brute strength in the case of the donkey. Two tap-dancing pigs in top hats add a bit of slapstick to the production, which is then contradicted by the appearance of a perfectly normal, serenely sleeping baby Jesus, lovingly gazed at by the eccentric creatures. Rendered in muted watercolors, the depictions of the animals are endearing but the angels are rather unsettling and the overall package is not always in keeping with the tone of the original.-E. M.
