Based on a legend, biblical birds hear a raven's call and join to celebrate the birth of the Savior in a tale of determination, perseverance, hope, and faith.
Raven is bored. Nothing ever happens in the fields around Bethlehem until one night, a dazzling star lights up the night sky. Angels sing, “Baby Jesus is born!” Raven now has a mission. He takes flight to spread the message to the other birds. Owl, Dove, Rooster and Quail delight at the news and fly off with gifts for the Baby Jesus. Raven wonders, what gift could he bring?
Children will enjoy the lyrical chorus and discover that gifts come from the heart.
