[Candi Lynn · Rating 5 out of 5]

An imaginative story, exploring the idea, what if one of the shepherds in the fields, the night Jesus was born, was a grumpy guy. Pretty cute.
I would recommend discussing what is imagined and what is in scripture with the children to whom you read this story.

The story of the Shepherds and baby Jesus with a twist

[Carol Evans · Rating 4 out of 5]

Cute book, a humorous retelling of the Christmas story. One of the shepherds is grumpy all the time, until he sees the baby Jesus.
