Angela and the Baby Jesus
By: McCourt, Frank; Colon, Raul
Published by: Scribner Ebooks
"When my mother Angela, was six years old, she felt sorry for the Baby Jesus in the Christmas crib....".

Filled with the character and incident that have made Pulitzer Prize recipient Frank McCourt internationally renowned and beloved, Angela and the Baby Jesus is a timeless story of family -- and all of its joy, tradition, love, and incongruity -- and a book for the generations to cherish.
