description: A Christmas tale for young children that celebrates the true meaning of the season Come! drummed a woodpecker one cold wintry day. A baby is coming. Theres work to be done! One by one from field and forest the animals make their way to a barn. The cow has sweet-smelling hay to offer the baby. The bluebird has the gift of song. And a lamb has soft cozy wool. But the shy little fox has nothing to offer . . . or so he thinks. With its gentle text and warm expressive illustrations this irresistible take on the Nativity story invites even the youngest child to discover the truest gifts of the Christmas season: the ones that come from the heart.
