Juvenile Review - The Night of His Birth by Katherine Paterson




What a wonderful story full of wonder, faith and praise. "Sing out, my soul, the wonder..." begins and ends the story, and sounds like a line from a hymn. The illustrations add to the dreamlike wonder of Mary's descriptions of her newborn son, the loyalty and support she has in Joseph, and her incredulity that God chose her of all people to play such an important role in this miracle. Adults reading this story to their children will feel they've been given a glimpse of some of the things "Mary pondered in her heart."

I received a downloaded copy from the publisher through Netgalley in exchange for honest feedback/review.  This book will be published September 17, 2019 by Flyaway Books.  I gave this book 5 stars.
