Gennady Spirin's gloriously illustrated version of the Christmas story is now available in Spanish.

The story of the birth of Christ, celebrated around the world at Christmas, is one of the most beautiful in the New Testament. From Mary's meeting with the angel Gabriel to the birth of baby Jesus in a stable to the visit of the shepherds and three wise men, the story is rich in imagery and symbolism.
Gennady Spirin has been described as an artist who "truly represents the child's picture book as an object of art." In The Christmas Story, his paintings technically and spiritually surpass all of his earlier work. Drawing on his classical training and his Orthodox Christian faith, Gennady Spirin has created an exquisite book for the whole family to treasure.
With this new translation, Spanish-speaking and bilingual families everywhere will have the chance to experience the magic and beauty of Gennady Spirin's stunning version of the Christmas story.
