First published in Bob Hartman’s imaginative collection of tales about angels (
Angels, Angels, All Around)
this is a compelling retelling of a familiar Bible story from a new
perspective: the sadness and joy of the first Easter as witnessed by two
angels attendant at the crucifixion and the resurrection. This newly
illustrated edition presents Bob Hartman’s moving text, which gets
straight to the heart of Easter, with wonderfully evocative
pictures that shimmer with mystery and miracle.
