(4) K-3 Illustrated by Gennady Spirin. Clement Moore's classic Christmas poem is illustrated with Spirin's formal, elegant paintings. The art is small, detailed, and heavy (e.g., the reindeer are ornately adorned). Children may not warm up to this Saint Nicholas; the book is more likely to appeal to nostalgic adults or Spirin's fans.
