Portrait of Mary (1994) is a novel by Nikki Grimes.
Abstract
"The mother of Jesus Christ tells her story: how she fell for Joseph because of his muscular good looks, the opprobrium that followed her illegitimate pregnancy--illegitimate because she was already married to Joseph when she conceived a child by the spirit of God--her confusion when Jesus rejected her and her disbelief that he rose from the dead."--Publisher's description
