Inaccurate in that the kings visit the new baby Jesus so quickly — and yet I really loved this story. It was very sweet, beautiful illustrations. As long as you, the parent, know your Bible and can tell your children how that part isn’t right and that this is clearly a fictitious perspective of what could happen (it centers on shepherds who are told by an Angel to go visit the new Messiah), it’s still a wonderful story about doing your best work where you’re planted. Not all holy work means to be the one visiting baby Jesus. Some people are told to tend to the wheat, fish and prepare the wine. Loved that message in here.
