This is a must-read for me every year at Christmas. It is crucial that my children understand that if Jesus came into the world for us, then he also came into the world for the non-human creatures that people tend to marginalize and ignore, or worse, try to eradicate. I love the text and the illustrations in this book. My children like to find the Star of Bethlehem in the pictures.

You don't think of scorpions, bats, and cockroaches being present at the birth of Christ, but I suppose they were there along with the donkeys and camels. This is the nativity from their point of view--a nice reminder that God values all creatures, not just pleasant ones.

Strange little story of scorpions, spiders, roaches and other creatures who were there to welcome Christ.

Rats, cockroaches, bats, scorpions..the outcasts of the natural world but they too, witnessed the Nativity. A somber tribute to the lesser creatures. Moving and thought provoking.
