This very short book is a poem about a shepherd at the birth of Jesus. While not all the lines of poem scan properly, it is still a pretty nice poem, and even comes with illustrations. The author has given us new slant on the Christmas story about the shepherds, the angel, and Mary, Joseph and Jesus, and while it is very interesting, it is not exactly totally Biblical. Still, it has its charm, and perhaps as a legend, it makes a nice Christmas tale. ( )
