The Shepherd Who Did Not Go To Bethlehem is a children's book written by Susan Alice Ranlett in 1909. The story revolves around a young shepherd named David who lives in Bethlehem. On the night of Jesus' birth, he is supposed to go to the stable to see the newborn king. However, David is hesitant to leave his flock of sheep alone, fearing that they might be attacked by wolves. He decides to stay back and guard his sheep, missing the chance to witness the miracle of Jesus' birth. As the story progresses, David feels regretful for his decision and wishes he had gone to see the baby Jesus. He prays to God and asks for forgiveness. In a dream, he sees that the angels had come to him and shown him the baby Jesus. David wakes up feeling happy and grateful for the vision he had. The book teaches children the importance of making the right choices and the power of prayer. It also emphasizes the message of forgiveness and the idea that it's never too late to make things right. The story is written in a simple and easy-to-understand language, making it an ideal read for young children.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
