About this item

Jesus our brother, kind and good,Was humbly born in a stable of wood,And the friendly beasts around him stood,Jesus our brother, kind and good. This beautiful holiday book uses a timeless, beloved Christmas song to tell the story of the nativity. In the manger where Jesus was born, all the animals flock around Him and tell of the special gifts they gave to the infant. From the donkey that carried Mary to Bethlehem to the sheep whose wool made the baby a warm blanket and the doves that cooed a lullaby, these fluffy creatures will steal childrens hearts. Author/illustrator Patricia Eubank even penned two new verses to include the familiar cat and dog!
