 ~Kirkus Reviews

"Parents looking for read-aloud Christmas stories that are inviting, engaging, and whimsically different will find Debra Westgate-Silva and Marcin Piwowarski 

create the perfect blend of fun and serious...." 

~D. Donovan, Sr. Reviewer, Midwest Book Review

"In Bethlehem Barn, Debra Westgate-Silva has created 

a magical and whimsical retelling of the Christmas story." 

~The Children's Book Review

"Bethlehem Barn is a delightful retelling of that very first Christmas 

from the animals' point of view." 

~Joan Martin, book reviewer, Baytown Sun

"This story is different, however, in that these animals 

have some good THEOLOGY! The dove talks about the child 

being foretold, and they look for signs of the Messiah. 

It's not often you read a book and think, 'Yes, Sheep, preach!'" 

~Big Books Little Ears, Christian blog

"The best part is between the giggles your children will hear the 

animals speak the truth about who Jesus is: 

The King of Kings, The Prince of Peace, The Lamb of God." 

~Good Book Mom, Christian blog

"With a great sense of humor and wonder blended together, 

this is one you won't soon forget!" 

~Aryn the Librarian, Christian Book Blog

"The illustrations throughout the story are stunning 

and really bring to life the animals' feelings and emotions." 

~Family Book Club blog

"Bound to be a family favorite for years to come." ~Indie Reader
