Zusatztext Grover effectively reduces the Nativity story to quippy rhyming phrases in this padded board book! whose cozy mood is bolstered by Parry's soft! gauzy-looking digital artwork. 'Carry Mary!' reads the opening spread as Joseph leads a donkey down a road as birds! butterflies! and a rabbit dance around the couple. From there! they land in the 'safe place' of the stable! celebrate 'boy joy' when Jesus is born! and enjoy a little 'swaddle! coddle' before visitors arrive! having followed the 'far star' in the night sky. It's a simple! punchy! and jubilant retelling. Ages 4--8.
