Snow-covered trees, twinkling lights and sleighs - these remind us of Christmas. But what about sunlit hills, an ancient lighthouse or a wooden ship at sea?

Discover where Saint Nicholas (or Nikolaos) came from and follow him on his adventures.

Did he really wear a red suit and deliver gifts to children? Learn how people living in different times and places added a bit of themselves to his story. Inside you will find over 35 colourful and detailed illustrations of scenes from the North Pole to the Mediterranean Coast. Look out for fascinating facts about life in the late Roman period.


About the author:

While Colleen Brice has illustrated children's books for over ten years, this is

the first one she has written. She is fortunate to live in Cape Town, between

the mountains and sea in a climate not unlike Patara's. Her family and dogs

give her encouragement. Her faith fuels her imagination.
