Illustrated by
Erick Ingraham.
Henry, the Siamese cat known for his adventures in Hot-Air Henry, joins his family to participate in an outdoor Christmas pageant. When the group--including manger animals--goes caroling, the lamb runs away. Henry follows and leads the lost sheep safely back to the church. The story, in spite of the realistic, luminous art, swings awkwardly between fantasy and reality.
