Mary rode on Barnabas's back.
When they arrived in Bethlehem, it was time for Mary's baby to be born.
All the inns were full, so they spent the night in a stable where animals were kept.
There Mary had her baby.
Shepherds came to the stable and worshiped the baby Jesus.
They knew he was the Messiah who had come to save his people.
Afterward, Barnabas carried Mary and the baby Jesus back to Nazareth.
Davey liked to hear about the famous donkeys and the important things they had done.
He wanted to do a big job too, but his master never picked him to do anything.
But one day, all that changed.
It happened one morning when Davey was feeling especially down because he had nothing to do and could only eat and sleep.
Davy saw two strangers coming.
They spoke quietly to his owner.
Davy tried to hear their conversation.
He couldn't make out all of their words, but he did hear one of the men say, "'Because the Lord has need of him.'"
Davy wondered what they were talking about.
Davy's owner came to the pen and opened the gate.
He brought Davy out and led him to the two men.
Take this donkey, he said.
