Robbins, Ruth. Baboushka and the Three Kings. Illustrated
by Nicolas Sidjakov. New York: Parnassus, 1960.
In this Russian tale, old Baboushka is quietly tending her little house, when three strangers stop at her door. They are following a star to a place where a baby has just been born. They invite Baboushka to come with them, but she says it is too cold. After the men leave, Baboushka realizes that they are no ordinary strangers and they are seeking an extraordinary babe. (AB) |
