The book describes events and encounters that might have happened to the holy family and the child Jesus on their way to Bethlehem, at his birth, and on their flight to Egypt. They were inspired by the author's own experiences and impressions of visiting Israel and its neighboring countries. These stories invite you and your child/ren to reimagine the dangers and the happy encounters of the many more untold stories of people and animals being part of Jesus's beginnings beyond the actual biblical report.

Chapter 1 describes people which the holy couple may have met during their rush to Bethlehem and their role in the successful journey. Chapter 2 describes what a stable as a birthplace may have been like, and chapter 3 relates events to their arduous flight to ancient Egypt and its foreign culture.
