In One Small Donkey by Dandi Daley Mackall, and illustrated by Marta Alvarez Miguens, little ones will discover the story of the very first Christmas, seen through the eyes of an unlikely narrator---the donkey that carries Mary to Bethlehem. The donkey is not the biggest, fastest, or strongest of all the animals but he had an important job all the same. A wonderful message for children ages 4 to 8 years with lovely illustrations and a gently, rhyming text.
