"Well made and detailed"
The nativity was very well made and detailed. The expressions on all of the faces of the Holy Family and the cute jungle animals are perfect. You can tell very quickly that the baby is a boy. I thought of putting a little blanket over him to keep him warm when I display the Nativity. I am pleased with the Nativity and am happy that I purchased it.
