Joseph the carpenter and his wife Mary live in Nazareth. Mary is expecting a baby. One day, they must travel to another town, Bethlehem. The traditional Christmas story is here gently illustrated through beautifully-rendered tableaux of Waldorf dolls made from felt and wool, with colourful backgrounds. Young children will love the different patterns and textures in the pictures and parents will enjoy an alternative depiction of the well-known story.
