Very cute book! December 18, 2008
I bought this for my 2-yr. old granddaughter for Christmas & can't wait to give it to her...the pictures are very cute and will capture a little one's eyes and the story is very simply told through animal's eyes. Easily understandable!

This gentle story, told in simple rhyme, shows animals in a stable getting ready for a special guest. The block-print art, rich in earth-tones, gives a humble and loving feel to the scene. Each animal does what it can to prepare the stable, and when Mary and Joseph arrive, the animals stand in hushed anticipation. The final page shows all the animals gathered around the new baby Jesus, saying, "Welcome, welcome to our house!" A perfect read-aloud for little ones.

My toddler class loved this book. They loved the repetition and every time I'd read the line "Who is coming to our house?" they'd yell Jesus!! It is a great story told from the animals' perspective and a wonderful addition to any preschooler's library!

A wonderful little board book for the little ones. Nice size for them to handle! The Christmas story from the viewpoint of the stable animals is special. The colors are eye catching. Highly recommended!
 Charming Text, Okay Pictures December 22, 2007
This book is a favorite for my two pre-school-aged children. We read it year-round.
The rhymes of the tale are engaging. (I love the oft repeated line: "Someone, someone," says Mouse.)
My only quibble with the book is the art work. It is not to my taste, though I think that that is more a matter of personal preference than anything else.
