From Booklist
Ages 4-8. The medieval French Christmas carol "The Friendly Beasts," provided the inspiration for this picture book, which includes many more verses about all the animals who bring their own special gifts to the newborn Christ child. The format is festive, large, and lavish, with lots of gold details. On each double-page spread, a full-color painting and a short rhyming verse bring each animal up close. Of course, the donkey, the camels, and the cow are shown, but so are a lion and a bear. From the resplendent peacock, like a star in purple and gold, to the humble woodworm that spares the oak of the precious stall, children will enjoy seeing how the animals bring the whole world into the stable. At the back of the book are the original words and the music of the song. Hazel Rochman

From School Library Journal
reS-Gr 1-In an original tale based on the Christmas carol "The Friendly Beasts," lyrical verse describes the humble gifts brought to the newborn Jesus by the lion, the peacock, the camels, the ram, the woodworm, etc. The gilded double-page spreads are large and quite lovely, with the attention to detail that characterizes Ward's work. The Christ child is never seen, but on the last spread, all of the creatures are gathered together to gaze upon his radiance in the stable. There are several other fine versions of this carol, but the appealing verse and sumptuous paintings make this one special.-E. M.
