THE CHRISTMAS BIRD

by Sallie Ketchum
Augsburg
ISBN: 0806638710
Age Level: All Ages


Did you ever wonder how the robin got its red breast? This story offers an explanation: the robin used to be all one dark color until the special night when Jesus was born. The bird fanned the flames of a fire to keep the newborn baby warm --- and burned its breast feathers red in the process.
