Wow! Echoing the other commenters that this post really helped me see such deep meaning in a lovely story, but one that I had not considered in this way before. Beautifully done. 👏

Thank you taking a book that could easily be skimmed over as “twaddle” and unveiling the sacramental beauty of it! My kids still love this book and your reflection has helped me love it more, too.

You took a story that I had never taken a minute to look at beyond the surface and have made it so I will never again be able to unsee all the Christ-centered symbolism. A humbling reminder that beautiful truths can be found in surprising places, if only we will have eyes to see!
