Award-winning illustrator Christopher Wormell’s stunning and unique take on the Nativity story is back in a new format and will continue to surprise and delight readers young and old. From dogs watching over shepherds’ flocks when angels appear, to a charmed cobra performing in Herod’s court as the king tries to deceive the wise men, Wormell’s trademark animal imagery brings a new perspective to the story of the first Christmas.

Award-winning illustrator Christopher Wormell brings his vivid artwork to the classic Aesop’s Fables, a cornerstone of children’s literature, in a visual feast to delight both children and adults. Gorgeous linoleum block prints illustrate a key moment in the story, with the morals also printed in a hand-cut style on the facing page. This simple approach encourages parent-child interaction as the parent fills in the details of the story (drawn from the appendix).
