I fell completely in love with this book. It tells the story of Christ's birth from Mary's point of view. The illustrations took my breath away. They are full of color and life. It brought the story to life in such an intimate way. An absolute treasure that will be a Christmas tradition to read in our home for years to come.

This novel is exactly what a good children's book should be, in my opinion. It's got a relatable protagonist, a well-paced interesting plot, and emotional highs and lows. I'm very glad I finally took time to read this.

This follows the story of Jesse who makes friends with Leslie. The friends explore their creativity where they are the rulers of their own world. This would be a good book to have in the classroom because it will encourage students to explore their creativity and how much it can help them get through issues in their real lives. In mathematics, it isn't always about logic and we want students to explore their creativity and ask questions.
