The Easter Angels — Bob Hartman

The angel sat in the dark and waited. This was the most unusual assignment he had ever received. Up till now, his missions had always been straightforward, typical guardian angel tasks. But this job was different...'

In this moving retelling, Bob Hartman gets right to the heart of the Easter story -- evoking its pain, its loneliness and, at last, its unexpected joy. The changing mood of the story is reflected in Tim Jonke's dramatic and powerful illustrations. The Easter Angels is a memorable book to return to year after year.
