Once upon a time, a lamb and his mommy were selected to participate in a live Nativity Scene sponsored by a local church in Colorado. The Christmas story is retold, replete with full-color original artwork, through the very inquisitive lamb's questions and his mother's replies. Pertinent Gospel passages are shared by a narrating pastor, with a salvation emphasis at the end. The ewe explains who the various characters are and what their roles were in Bethlehem long ago. You will find this mini-novel to be a new and refreshing perspective on the true meaning of Christmas, designed for Christian parents to read and discuss with their children during the Christmas season.From the book:"You mean he is the Son of the same God who made the mountains and the meadow and the flowers, and even me, like you've told me many times?" Ransom asked."Yes," she replied."But you never told me he has a Son," the lamb said."I¿thought that being in this nativity program would be a good way for you to learn.""Wow," said Ransom, "I¿can't wait to hear the rest of the story!"
