Shoemaker's Dream
merrytranslator avatar reviewed on + 68 more book reviews


This is a wonderful story about a Russian shoemaker who dreams Jesus is going to come see him. All the next day, people come and go, and he treats them with kindness, but is disappointed at the end of the day that Jesus didn't come. The message "whenever you do this for the least of these...." is beautifully told in word and full-color illustrations.
