That Baby in the Manger is a children's Christmas picture book with a needed message about inclusion and acceptance of cultural differences. As the children of a small church struggle with the portrayal of the Holy Family in the Nativity scene as European-not Middle Eastern and not necessarily like them-they learn more about Jesus's love for all children.
