A little angel lived among the clouds and suddenly learned that in December a baby would be born. And this little baby will become the Savior of the earth.
In heaven, angels were thrilled with this good news. Each of the cherubs was thinking about what gift to give to this little baby. On earth, three doctors who were inspired also knew the good news. They were struggling with what gift to give to the baby – a baby who would be a light in the darkness of humanity.
As we read this, we may realise that this is an entirely new story based on the biblical process of the birth of Jesus.
The little female angel, who is the main character in the book, is also the youngest of the angels, and she also struggles with what she can give to this little baby.

However, the wind should be a gift from the sky!

But rain should be a gift from the clouds.

But music is a gift from a bird.
She can’t think of anything to give! The whole universe is infinite and the little angel feels so small.
Looking down from heaven, she saw how vast and dark the starry sky was at night. The boundless darkness made her feel even smaller. She wondered if the little baby would feel lonely.
Suddenly, the little angel saw three people in the dark, they were three doctors, walking on the desert. They gesticulated with a map as if they had lost their way. They are alone in the dark, with no direction.
The little angel suddenly knew what he could be! She flew and flew and flew, straight to the ground. The extremely high speed of the fall made the little angel a bright new star, shining in the sky. The three doctors looked up at the sky to find the direction, and in their familiar celestial picture, a bright star suddenly appeared over Bethlehem.
Sure enough, they found the newborn baby in Bethlehem, and gave the gift they had prepared in their hands to Mary, who was forced to give birth to the baby in a manger in lonely poverty. When she gave birth, she looked up and saw the abundance of gifts and the friendly faces. Peace came to the hearts of the family.
The little angel in mid-air, as the brightest new star in the darkness, was the best gift she could have given.
