Description: One long-ago night, Benjamin combs the hills above Bethlehem in search of his lame sheep. But Kivsa is nowhere to be found, and Benjamin, exhausted, falls asleep. When he returns to his family, he learns that he has slept through a miracle: the skies opened, and angels sang of the birth of a king in their very own village. With his family and the other shepherds, Benjamin descends to Bethlehem, where he discovers a group of people surrounding a very special baby, as well as a host of lame animals -- Kivsa among them. Claudia Mills's tender tale is perfectly matched by Walter Lyon Krudop's warm, earthy paintings.
