I began reading this book with high hopes, but after a few pages I became confused as to the target audience. While I wasn't expecting a Disney-type of fluff, I was a little surprised to see some things that were less appropriate for children, such as a predator talking about his previous meals/victims. It just ... seemed ... wrong. Nice illustrations, though. ( ) Zeige 2 von 2
These aren't cute or sentimentalized ``friendly beasts''; each has a point of view appropriate to its species, with responses to the Christ Child ranging from the earthworm's ignoring the miracle taking place above him to the failing old donkey, rejuvenated by his ``sacred burden.'' McCurdy's full-page scratchboard portraits give much the same effect as his customary medium, tinted wood engravings; their deep shadows and subtle textures are skillfully achieved with hatched lines and stippling. Serious, reverent, and handsomely designed. AuszeichnungenBemerkenswerte Listen
