Synopsis
Everyone in the village is talking about the new star in the sky, but Baboushka, as always, is busy keeping her house spotless and bright. She offers hospitality to three strangers who are following the star in search of a new baby king. When they have continued on their way Baboushka follows in their footsteps, carrying with her some toys for the baby. But she has left it too late and, so some say, she continues her quest to this day. A charming folk-tale which blends the Bible story of Christmas with the tradition of giving gifts.

About the Author
ARTHUR SCHOLEY is the author of many stories for children, a large number of which have been broadcast by BBC Radio. HELEN CANN trained in illustration and fine art. For Lion, she has illustrated the stunning new Lion Bible for Children, A Child's Book of Celtic Prayers and Who Laid the Cornerstone of the World?
From Publishers Weekly
All the villagers are agog with news of a star and a procession all but the house-proud Baboushka, who's too busy keeping things tidy. She declines the three kings' offer to join them on their journey, a decision she later regrets when she finally sets out alone for Bethlehem and arrives after the newborn king is gone. Sholey's nifty folktale carries a thoughtful message, and Cann embroiders her watercolor illustrations with Russian folk art motifs. Ages 4-8.

Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
