Peter Collington is the author and illustrator of several highly acclaimed books for children. The Chicago Tribune praised him as a “master of wordless picture books.”
"This is a Christmas miracle like no other, with such richness in
image and story that children will return to it again and again"
(Booklist, starred review).
"Without a doubt the most original Christmas book of the year not
the least because of its surprising yet, in context, fitting
combination of the devout and the surreal."--The Horn Book, starred
review
"The story is sweet, simple and wordless. The illustrations are
intricate enough to warrant reading this one over and
over."--American Bookseller
"...an upbeat story to treasure for this and many Christmases to
come."--School Library Journal
“In a series of meticulously crafted panels, Collington poignantly
relates the wordless story of a penniless old woman whose good turn
is rewarded–she rescues the village church’s nativity scene from a
vandal–when the figurines come to life and save her.”–Publishers
Weekly, Starred
