First published in Bob Hartman's imaginative collection of tales about angels (Angels, Angels, All Around) this is a compelling retelling of a familiar Bible story told from a new perspective; the sadness and joy of the first Easter as witnessed by two angels attendant at the Crucifixion and Resurrection. This newly illustrated edition presents Bob Hartman's moving text, which gets straight to the heart of Easter, with wonderfully evocative pictures that shimmer with mystery and miracle.
