This review is from: A Small Miracle: A Christmas Story (DVD)

This is a quiet, gentle, musical Christmas story which can be enjoyed by toddlers and adults alike. A poor gypsy street musician playing her old accordion to make ends meet at Christmas time is ignored by the busy shopping crowds. She has no resort but to pawn her beloved old instrument. Then she is the victim of a cruel theft. Ah, but Mary, Joseph, and the Wise Men have all benefitted from her kindness that very Christmas Eve and they take matters into their own hands. There is no dialogue, only the gentle music and the lovely drawings that move.

This review is from: A Small Miracle: A Christmas Story (DVD)

When I was given this book to look at on retreat by my directress I knew it had to be something special. First it is wonderful that the aurthor can spread such a beautiful lesson to all of us without words. Its like what St. Francis said "preach the gospel and use words only when needed".
I cried every time I looked at this book and studied each picture more carefully and with a deep sense of the wonder of God taking care of our needs not our wants and how happy one can be with so little.
