"The Savior is born! Come and see! When a little shepherd boy is awakend by the brightness of angels one unexpected night, he is delighted to learn that a baby boy has come to save the world. In this gentle Christmas story told from the perspective of a young shepherd, children will be immersed in the wonder and joy of Jesus's birth. The exuberance of the little shepherd will inspire young children to go and tell the story of this special baby and the love God showed that night. "
