About this title: A retelling of the Tyrolean folktale about King Laurin who pays surprise visits to lucky people on Christmas Eve. Fritzl, Franzl, and Hansl, the sons of a poor cobbler, welcome a strange visitor on Christmas Eve while their father is out looking for work. The cranky man demands food and forces the brothers to give up their bed so that he can rest. Can this rude stranger really be King Laurin? Color paintings illustrate the story.
