Baboushka and the Three Kings

Resumen

Baboushka and the Three Kings is a children's picture book written by Ruth Robbins, illustrated by Nicolas Sidjakov, and published by Parnassus Press in 1960. Sidjakov won the annual Caldecott Medal as illustrator of the year's "most distinguished American picture book for children".
Parnassus was a small press in Berkeley, California, established in 1957 by Herman Schein, the husband of writer-illustrator Ruth Robbins. Sidjakov illustrated one of its first books and during the next several years it published at least three picture books he created with Robbins as writer.
Baboushka and the Three Kings retells a "Russian folktale about an old woman's endless search for the Christ child". A recent retelling asks in preface, "All of you have heard of Santa Claus, but have you heard of Baboushka?"
The 28-page book includes a song "Baboushka", verse by Edith M. Thomas and musical score by Mary Clement Sanks.
