On left-hand pages framed by tidy botanical borders, Keay paints large capital letters and the people or events discussed (Joseph takes a hammer to the letter <i>C</i> on an early page); Bowman's rhymes and Bible verses appear opposite ("A <i>carpenter</i> named Joseph/ chose Mary for his wife./ The news that Mary told him/ would soon change Joseph's life"). Concrete, nativity-specific words (inn, manger, wise men) share space with terms (king, ruler, savior) that emphasize Jesus' role: "Though he was just a baby, / he was born to be a <i>king</i>./ Jesus will reign forever, / and heaven and earth will sing!" Doll-like characterizations and a soft pastel palette bolster this soothing introduction to the story of Jesus' birth.--Publishers Weekly<br>
