This book is a Finalist in the Picture Book Category, New Zealand Post Children's Book Awards 2010.
All the farmyard animals - the jersey cow, the collie, bantam hens, sheep and lambs, ducks, kune kune, and the ginger cat - come to the cowshed door. They all come mooing, baaing, clucking, barking, quacking and meowing and they all come bearing gifts, true kiwi gifts like a rugby ball, a pavlova, jandals, a Kiwi toy. And who do you think they saw? Little Baby Jesus by the cowshed door.
The classic Christmas story is given a New Zealand twist in this warm and evocative retelling, with gorgeous illustrations by Gavin Bishop.
First published October 2009.
