Whiter than the light- A Christian children's book about christmas
It is pitch dark. Yep warms himself with the other sheep near the fire . Suddenly the air is filled with a bright light . All the sheep are scared, but not Yep . He chases the shepherds to the barn and finds there, along with the ox and the donkey, a Big Secret !
In this charming picture book 'Whiter than the light' Sylvia Vanden Heede let’s children experience the Christmas story through the eyes of Yep , a black sheep that is very curious. She lets Yep ask questions and draw conclusions that are very understandable for young children . The colorful illustrations by Marieke ten Berge match this perfectly . In the back of the book is the Christmas story as it is told in the Book of Luke.
After 'Yep' * is this the second picture book about this black sheep. When all the sheep are outside, angels come up with a message about a special child that is born. He goes to research and comes to the stable where the child is located. The donkey and the ox do not let him in, but he finds out that this child is the same as a lamb and that this child is even God himself. This picture book is an edit of the Christmas story from the perspective of the sheep in the field. The literal text of Lucas is included on the last page. The beautiful warm paintings are rather dark of tint because the story is played at night. The animals have human attributes and are comically set in the illustrations. For example, as the sheep are blinded by the light of the angels and when Yep meets the crowned camels of the three kings. The text is simple and well written; This is in white letter in the dark plates and in black on the white pages. There are no people in the whole book, and the Christmas child is only mentioned. A welcome and attractive edition to read from about 4 years.
