There are many stories about Santa Claus. This book shows Saint Nicholas as he really was, following the Synaxarion: the boy from Patara, the young man who secretly threw a purse of gold through a window, the bishop of Myra who saved the innocent.
Every moment of his life has two facing pages: the text on the left, short and clear, good for reading aloud, and a whole painting on the right, in warm colours and gold.
Besides the story, the child learns where the saint lived (with a map), how to recognise him in icons, what the 800-year-old icon from Mount Sinai shows, what the new words mean and how Saint Nicholas is honoured in Romania.
At the end come a short prayer, a colouring page in the colours of the icon and nine questions for parents to talk about together. The first page has room for the child's name. The book is in Romanian.
