Author Description

<p>Written by Charlotte Elizabeth Bowen and originally published in 1889 by McLoughlin Brothers of New York, this illustrated, rhyming, heart-warming story tells of a little robin, hungry and cold on Christmas Eve. The little bird finds his way to a church, where he also finds food and shelter. When the children's choir practice their Christmas songs, the robin joins in and the Rector notes the lesson: "Seek God, my children, and when times of storm and trouble come, He'll guide you as He did the bird, and safely lead you home."</p>
