The Christmas Nightingale: Christmas Stories of Poland

The Christmas Nightingale: Christmas Stories of Poland

Marguerite de Angeli
2.6/5 ( ratings)
Poland, a land filled with poetry and legend, is the setting for these three lovely stories of Christmas. The mysterious little boy who appeared in a peasant's hut on Christmas and who could not speak but only sing like a nightingale, the three brave children who gave a Christmas puppet show, and the small blind Anetka who asked for a lamp for Christmas—these are the children you meet in these tales.

Mr. Kelly has told his stories with the same understanding of and affection for Poland that has marked his other books. Readers who enjoyed his "little trilogy" of Polish cities, "The Trumpeter of Krakow," "The Blacksmith of Vilno," and "The Golden Star of Halich" know that he can tell an exciting and moving tale. We are sure that these delightful stories of boys and girls in Poland will be loved by American boys and girls for they have as their central theme the real spirit of Christmas which children of all countries understand.
