Christmas and the Saints
Illustrated by Anderson, Rus
Blending history and legend, Hertha Pauli’s narrative explores how the message of Christmas spread from the manger in Bethlehem across centuries and continents, inspiring global traditions like the nativity crib, gift-giving, and the Christmas tree. The journey spans key figures and locations from the Magi and fourth-century St. Helena to St. Brigid in Ireland, St. Francis of Assisi in Italy, and La Navidad in the New World.
