Christmas is coming!
In a church tower, three bells practice ringing for Christmas Eve. But the newest and smallest bell in the tower is silent. What could be wrong? The dove, the wise crow, and all the other animals find good words to try to encourage the little bell to ring. But nothing works . . . until Christmas Eve when they find the words that inspire the little bell to ring out--"Peace on earth."
An inventive story about the meaning of Christmas, with ethereal illustrations by Maja Dusíková.
First published in Switzerland under the title Die kleine Glocke, die nicht läuten wollte.
Translated from the German.
A persistent dove searches for the right words to inspire the smallest church bell to ring.
