The inspiration for the Emmy-nominated film and its companion Angela&’s Christmas Wish, now streaming on Netflix!Pulitzer Prize recipient Frank McCourt shares the story of his mother&’s childhood Christmas in this tender and heartwarming picture book, previously published as Angela and the Baby Jesus.Angela is six-years-old and worries for the baby Jesus on the altar of St. Joseph&’s church in Limerick. December nights are damp and cold, and the church is dark at night. How can the baby Jesus&’ mother leave him in the manger without even a blanket to cover him? The baby Jesus surely needs Angela&’s help, even if she is not allowed to go on the altar, especially by herself.Filled with the characters, incident, and detail that have made Frank McCourt internationally renowned and beloved, Angela&’s Christmas is a timeless story of real life—in all of its joy, innocence, and incongruity. A story for all generations to enjoy and cherish.
