From the publisher

The bright burst of blinding light sent the wolf pack running, leaving Belzib behind after he hit his head in all the commotion. Liora, a lamb venturing out on her own, found him out cold, but the angel’s booming voice soon awoke Belzib. It wasn’t natural for a sheep to make friends with a wolf, but the angel’s song declaring peace on earth drove away all concern. Excited about the angel’s big announcement, the unlikely pair had to follow the brightest star they had ever seen to find the Savior.The Light and the Life by bestselling author Marty Machowski follows the adventures of the animals who could have witnessed the events of Jesus’s life. Join the lamb and wolf as they head to Bethlehem, lizards living in the temple, camels traveling with the wise men, turtles in the Sea of Galilee, hyrax at the Mount of Transfiguration, squirrels at Lazarus’s tomb, and the donkey Jesus rode into Jerusalem.
