The Poorest Shepherd / Maura Roan McKeegan, Illustrated by Gina Capaldi

In quiet fields,
Where stars shone bright,
Five shepherds watched
Their flocks one night …

Find out what happens in this charming Christmas legend when five young shepherds meet Mary, Joseph, and the Infant Jesus on the most holy of nights. All bring gifts, except the youngest, who has nothing to offer. But in those empty hands, the poorest shepherd receives the greatest gift of all.

This heartwarming story will help children and adults alike see that our poverty is precious to Jesus and that the emptier we are, the more we can be filled by his love.
