The Message of the Birds
Description
This appealing Christmas story with a poignant message for young and old alike will gently prompt discussion on important issues
An old owl tells the Christmas story to the community of birds as he has done so many times before, but when he tells of the special message from the Baby Jesus, a little bird questions why they no longer sing the message. "People no longer listen," is the sad realization. The birds decide to share the message once more, but this time to the children of the world. And what unfolds is surely a Christmas wonder.
