Little Boy's Christmas Gift by John Speirs
Sure to become a new holiday classic, this heartwarming story of the first Christmas will delight readers of all ages. Special gold ink makes each page resplendent in true holiday fashion. Three wise men follow a star, bearing rich gifts for a new-born king. Unseen, a little boy follows, carrying a gift in a small brown sack. As they journey, the wise men are joined by nomads and farmers, musicians and shepherds, all with bountiful gifts for the new king. The little boy follows the evergrowing caravan all the way to a humble stable where the star shines brightly and angels sing. Then the gifts are presented. What does a small child have fit for a king? Accumulative text and luminous, detailed paintings blend with a charming story that's perfect for reading aloud.
John Speirs studied the work of Pieter Brueghel, Hans Memling, and other 15th- and 16th-century Northern European painters to create the remarkable paintings for this book. He lives in Richmond, England.
