This is a retelling of the classic Russian Christmas story of Babushka. Babushka is a very busy old woman, keeping her home neat and tidy. One winter night the three wise men stop in. They invite her to join them on their journey to meet the newborn king. Babushka is too busy to join them. A few days later, she sets off to find them. She meets others on her journey. It is said that she is still looking for him.

This is a beautiful story with beautiful illustrations!
