More than 1 million copies sold! One of the best-selling children's books of all time. First released in book form in 1946, this story has since appeared in numerous editions. It tells of a small angel who simply can't get with the program no matter how hard he tries. Then an understanding elder angel realizes that he's homesick and is able to retrieve a box of his most treasured possessions from "back home." When it comes time for Jesus to be born on Earth, The Littlest Angel gives his precious box to the Baby, but he is worried that God will think his gift too humble. However, God is pleased indeed, and transforms the box into The Star of Bethlehem. The Littlest Angel is presented with the award-winning artistry of Paul Micich who has won several awards and medals for his work. Young Ari Micich was the model for his father's artwork in The Littlest Angel.

Still a very special story.

So classic! I have thought about this book for years. Was one of my all time favorites. Finally it occurred to me to look on Amazon and find it. Yes! Don't know why it still gives me tears, even as my beliefs have changed over the years. But rest assured, it is still one of the best Christmas stories ever...or even about true giving in general.

Insulted at what we received !

The book is torn, food smashed inside and written in. I’m blown away that we received such a damaged item. This book was bought for our son and has a lot of sentimental value. I will absolutely not give this to him. I’m actually insulted.

A must have Christmas story. I have been enthralled by this story since I first saw it as an animated movie in the basement of my grammar school about 60 years ago. The story is timeless so don't be afraid to buy it. The illustrations are beautiful. As our family grows, each youngster gets a book for Christmas, signed, dated and with a written sentiment especially for them.
This is the story of a little angel who doesn't quite fit into the standards of Heaven. This little misfit offers his humble gift at Christmas and then fears he will be ridiculed when his crude offering is compared to the gifts from the other angels. Then something happens; but you should read the story yourself.

A classic that remains a treasure

Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2018

You don't have to be religious to appreciate the fundamental message of what sort of gifts would most please the gods: a love of nature and natural things. It was a favorite since it was read to me as a toddler, and I love to gift it to others. In addition to the love of nature, it models what it means to give a gift that is truly personal and heartfelt, more precious than anything money could buy.

The art in this book is beautiful, and the story is so touching! The words maybe a little big for the age group it seems to be directed for but its still fantastic. I had this book as a child and would just flip through the pages for the pictures until I could fully understand it. When I had the ability to read it again as an adult it actually made me cry.

Just one of the sweetest books every written or illustrated. Since our family copy mysteriously disappeared from our Christmas box I had to reorder. I was concerned that the charming illustrations would have been changed. They weren't.

Wonderful Classic Children's Christmas story

Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2017

Verified Purchase

Have always loved this edition. Sadly, needed a copy to send friends who just lost a child, though it is primarily a wonderful Christmas story.
I was surprised by the smaller hardback size.
The others I purchased (15 years ago) were large picture book - and there was even a large blue leather type with gold lettering cover Anniversary edition. So disappointed it is out of print😕The size is the only reason I took off 1 star!

Know your child(ren) before sharing - Disney's Bambi can shock too

Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2009

Verified Purchase

I understand some of the concerns of the folks who gave this book a bad review and said it wasn't appropriate for children. Truly, I don't plan to read it to my son for many years. But I can tell you that I found a copy in my school's library when I was 8 years old and it touched me deeply in ways that I think were quite positive (and yes, I was already reading at college level).

At the time, I had a mischevious little brother who had nearly died of a virus and my infant sister had barely survived an illness 4 months later. She got sick when we moved to a new place.

For me at that particular time, the idea that children could easily die was very real and the story was actually quite comforting. I could relate to the little one trying to get adjusted to a new home, I could see my brother in his antics, and I could contemplate the possibility of my own future death. Then, as I have always been in the habit of being prepared, I made up my own little box of precious things to take to heaven with me.

When I was paring down stuff in my storage unit recently, I found my little box of treasures again and took it out to share with my son. It includes a well-loved, plush squirrel doll given to me by my Grandma, some doll house furniture that I made with my Grandpa, a rock from their farm, a photo of my Mom and Dad when they were dating, a photo of my brother and sister and I, a music box from Community Playthings, a pen used by my other Grandpa, and a few other items.

The Littlest Angel story makes me cry just thinking about it, yet, I still think that this is a box that I'd like to take to heaven with me, with a few additions such as a wedding photo and perhaps my son's first shoes.

Clearly, the timing of sharing the story is critical, as it could badly shock a child who is unprepared. Similarly, a friend of mine was traumatized as a child by Disney's Bambi because it made him afraid that his mother could die and leave him all alone.

A parent must weigh the appropriateness and timing of many things: sharing the story of The Littlest Angel is one of them.

Best wishes with your decision!

I bought this book for a friend's grandchildren as I had loved it as a child (50 odd years ago). I was thrilled when it arrived - lovely story, beautiful illustrations and still brought a tear to my eye - but in a good way. Thoroughly recommended!
