A White Colt’s Tale: A Children’s Christmas Story

THERE is always a story within a story, a tale within a tale. This is one of the myths told by the angels and archangels that watched over the Nativity the first night of Christmas.ON the same night, the Baby Jesus was born; a pure white colt was also born. The Holy Family gave him the Spanish name of Manuelo. This is Manuelo's story, and the story of Jesus too. Jesus, whom the Prophets of Israel once told us, we would call Emmanuel, is God's gift of love to save the world.
