"This is a pleasant additional purchase for those who want a version light on religious mysticism but with a happy message of "love, and peace, and light." - School Library Journal


"This sprightly Nativity story is energized by Leever’s diorama-style illustrations, an inventive blend of collage and three-dimensional cut-paper figures, objects, and settings. Van Hooft’s simple language and sturdy rhymes sustain a tender, comforting mood and Leever’s smiling cast of humans and animals extends the joyful tone." - Publishers Weekly


"The book’s charming art uses rhyming verse and innovative paper-collage illustrations to present the narrative of the birth of Jesus." - Kirkus Reviews
