A beautiful Christmas story, told from the perspective of the birds. Old owl is reminiscing about the song heard by birds at the first Christmas, and looking out on a world that seems to have stopped listening. All the birds gather and hatch a plan to share their song with the children, who have more open hearts, ready to listen to it. Bird to bird, child to child, they share their song of Peace on Earth. The illustrations are soft and wintery. The final page includes a montage of the word Peace in a multitude of languages.
