Descripción editorial
A delightful holiday book from beloved author Marianne Richmond, Little Bird Finds Christmas reminds us all of what's really important during the holidays.
“Okay,” said Little Bird. “But where do we find Christmas?”
She had looked in a lot of places, and she was tired.
“In your own heart,” said Mama. “In my heart. In all the grateful, giving hearts. It’s our thank-you to God for His gift to love us.”
An adorably sweet new Christmas story from a bestselling author whose books have become family classics, Little Bird Finds Christmas is a delightful journey of finding the joy, warmth, and spirit of the season wherever you are—in your heart.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Little Bird, an expressive scarlet songbird with a pink breast, looks forward to Christmas despite not knowing what it is in this nativity-focused picture book. Flitting from the Big Store to the Food Market to the Post Office, Little Bird regards the bustling, queuing human community, portrayed with varying abilities and skin tones, but concludes that the seasonal errands don't constitute Christmas. In saturated hues and slick textures, Samuel's digital illustrations mix scenes of a world in preparation—the birds alight, the smiling humans, and a squirrel family decorating for the holidays. When Little Bird and her mother fly to a snow-covered chapel, Richmond's text turns to revelation, defining Christmas as "the day we celebrate the birth of Jesus, who is the son of God," as well as an observance found "in all the grateful, giving hearts." Little Bird's curiosity makes her an engaging protagonist in a message-forward book about a busy holiday brought close to the nest. Ages 4–6.
