Christmas Stories and Poems

Give your child the atmosphere of that very Christmas miracle, familiar from childhood. In this collection, kind poems and stories about the bright celebration of the Nativity of Christ create a New Year mood and encourage you to read the book all the way through. Works by F. M. Dostoevsky, A. I. Kuprin, S. Cherny, and other classics help children empathize with the heroes, learn sympathy, and become acquainted with traditions of Russian culture—introducing them to the most important human values. Large print and word stress marks make independent reading easier, and illustrations by Natalia Moshkova support the plot and convey the anticipation of a miracle. Texts match the primary school program. For primary school age. AST Publishing House, 2025.
