Because her family is too poor for her to bring a gift to the Christ child at midnight mass, Juanita does not want to go to church, until she hears a voice telling her to bring an armload of weeds which turn into beautiful flowers, in a retelling of a traditional Mexican tale.Because her family is too poor for her to bring a gift to the Christ child at midnight mass, Juanita does not want to go to church, until she hears a voice telling her to bring an armload of weeds which turn into beautiful flowers.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Originally native to Mexico, beautiful poinsettia plants decorate homes around the world every holiday season. But few people who love the plant's deep red tones know the traditional Mexican tale about how the poinsettia first came to be.

In this extraordinary collaboration, Fabian Negrin brings his warm, glowing scenes to Joanne Oppenheim's thoughtful narrative, transporting readers to Old-World Mexico and into the arms of a young girl as her trust leads her straight into a miracle. A beautiful alternative to the traditional nativity story, this book is a wonderful evocation of Mexican customs and culture.
