A fabulous collection of stories for young children about animals that encountered Jesus during his lifetime and how they were there when key incidents in his life took place.
Imagine you could have been there when Jesus was alive on earth. The animals in this book saw just what happened. The fox was out on a cold, starry night when he suddenly heard the sound of Angels singing. The cat was looking forward to a wedding party that nearly went wrong. The magpie had a birds-eye view of Zaccheus climbing into his tree. And the mouse got caught on a boat in a storm and saw an amazing miracle.
For more than 30 years, this much-loved collection of Bible stories by award-wining authors and illustrators Nick Butterworth and Mick Inkpen has been enjoyed by children in groups and at home, and made an ideal gift for special occasions, such as christenings and baptisms.
