From Booklist:
K-Gr. 2. There's no attempt to disguise the message here, butit is a worthy one, presented with an almost scriptural feel. Evans,the author of the best-selling Christmas Box (1995), uses simplelanguage to tell the tender, heartfelt story of the boy Alexander, ina faraway land, a long time ago, who sets aside his own pleasure tohelp a stranger and in so doing earns the right to light the Christmasflame. The art is quite nice. It is Craig's first picture book, andhis gauzy yet detailed spreads are at once mystical and real as theydefine the homogeneous community, lit by snowflakes, where the Keeperof the Flame looks like Santa and the flame that burns so brightlyseems like the star that marked the way to the newly born babe. Aholiday book that calls for family sharing. Stephanie Zvirin
