Clopper The Christmas Donkey

My name is Clopper. Nuzzle up while I tell you about a very special night. It all began early one morning as I was munching on a breakfast of sweet grass . . . This little donkey thought the journey to Bethlehem with Mary and Joseph was too hard to be worth it. But what happened after they settled into the dusty stable was more wonderful than anything he could ever imagine! Children will love this creative retelling of the first Christmas--told through the eyes of Clopper the donkey! This best-selling title, now in a perfectly sized padded hardcover, offers a unique look at the events of Jesus's birth. From the long and tiring journey to Bethlehem to the quiet of the stable, from the miraculous birth of a child to the nighttime visits of shepherds and kings, the lovable donkey narrates the story with awe and wonder.
