An enchanting Christmas gift with exquisite cut-paper silhouettes of the Nativity.
This enchanting Christmas gift tells the story of the Nativity in five exquisite cut-paper silhouettes. Each delicate scene is beautifully decorated with red, white and gold, and brings the Christmas story of the Angel Gabriel, Baby Jesus, the Shepherds and the Three Wise Men to life.
Jan Pienkowski was born in Warsaw in 1936. Jan won the Kate Greenaway Medal in 1972 and again in 1980 for Haunted House. He was to use his silhouette technique to dramatic effect in other books like the Fairytale Library. He also pioneered the modern pop-up book with innovative and dramatic paper-engineering.
