Opis

Christmas is a magical time of love, joy, and giving. The stories and artwork collected in this book are about real and imaginary heroes who inhabit chilly landscapes and bring gifts of cheer and hope during long winter nights. Their generous spirits inspired this book. Let the magic of the season transport you as you learn about some very old generous old souls, whose stories are very old indeed. For more than 40 years, artist and author Martha Link Walsh has been honing her skills in the ancient techniques of cut-paper art. The finished images may look simple, but in reality, every paper-cut piece takes hours of careful planning, a very steady hand, and a very sharp blade. The purity and grace of her images are a perfect complement to the honesty and wisdom of the age-old legends they illustrate.
