S is for Star
Upon Christmas tree branches, candles glow while angels and animals, birds and balls cover Christmas trees in homes and halls
keeping watch on that starry night and S stands for sheep
asleep in the starry light.
From angels with their tidings of great joy, to Queen Victoria, the source of so many English holiday traditions, each letter of the alphabet is explored with both engaging poems and detailed text. S is for Star will add new meaning to family traditions, and perhaps even inspire new ones!
