"No Mother is a Stranger to Another, Anywhere..."

Mothers in the Bethlehem manger (cow, hen, ewe, mare) bond in support of expectant mother Mary in the night of Jesus' birth.Sweet, simple verse is a delightful composition. Nice illustrations, great Xmas read-aloud for ages 3 to 7. But is also very heartwarming to us mothers. Makes a great gift from one mom to another, as it is all about the bond all mothers share.Nice offshoot of the song "The Friendly Beasts", always a favorite with young children.
