Gift Bringer, The - Val Hawthorne
Product Description
This new musical is an original and sensitive telling of the traditional story of Baboushka the gift-bringer - a Russian legend.
Her story is one of a never-ending search for the baby who was to be King of heaven and earth. She is said to leave gifts by sleeping children at Christmas time in the hope that one of them is the Christ Child. It’s a story about giving and the best thing we can give is something of ourselves.
The musical is suitable for Key Stage 1 and lower Key Stage 2. There are plenty of small speaking parts that are easy to learn. The songs are varied but straightforward and all the children can join in with the singing. There's a free CD with complete vocal and backing tracks, and also photocopiable song texts. An original, sensitive telling of a traditional story.
