Little Miriam, the innkeeper's daughter, longs to be useful like her big brother, so her mother lets her direct a late-arriving couple to the stable, and when she later sees lights coming from there she goes to investigate and offer a gift.

Wishing to see the kings who are visiting her town of Bethlehem, a beggar girl goes to a stable where she meets, instead, a young family that gives her a special gift and blessing.

A shepherd relates a story to his grandchildren about the night that he was visited by the angel Gabriel, who brought news of the birth of Jesus--and who took him, personally, to see the newborn king as other angels watched over his flock.

The story of the Nativity as seen by animals. The protagonists are two sheep dogs and a goat who follow the star to Bethlehem where they are joined by more animals. The novel describes the adventures on the way--they save an angel--and gives their reaction to the birth of Christ.

All the beloved figures of the nativity story are given new life by acclaimed poet and novelist Kevin Crossley-Holland, who links their tales into a chain of voices revealing the miracle and meaning of Christmas.
