Reviews
1. "Most children are fascinated by animals. Going to the zoo, visiting the farm, going on a hayride, it's hard to visit any of these wonderful places with a child without them coming away with a facination for all the animals of creation!
Ada Onwukeme exhibits a similarly enchanted view of the Christmas Story in One Starry Night In Bethlehem using animals to capture scenes from the Birth of Jesus and meaning of salvation. It tells the story from the perspective of the nativity animals who live in the stable during the time of the Birth of Jesus. A simple, straight forward text teaches us the message of peace in God's Kingdom.
Toss those books with old and worn-out images (particularly if they contain Santa Clause or Christmas trees), and pick up this one instead for a rich contemplation of the mystery and joy of Christmas. Afterall, Scripture tells us that the wolf and the lambwill live together, leopard will lie down with the baby goat. This is a beautifully written and illustrated book that is a perfect gift for all the special chidlren in your life. I highly recommend it since tells the Christmas Story in a very special way that captures their imagination."

2. "One Starry Night In Bethlehem as retold by Ada Onwukeme is a lovely story for children from the perspective of the animals at the manger. The best part of the story is when all the animal families discuss the Messiah's arrival. They are so full of hope, imagining a world with no predators, a world in which all animals live in harmony." Krista Neal, Teacher ("I really like how the animals talk about Baby Jesus. Sean, 8 years old." )
3. "One Starry Night In Bethlehem is an introduction to the Birth of Jesus, as told from an animal's perspective, and what Christ's Birth meant for our world." Dawn Kenton, Religious Education Teacher.
