One of the most beautiful Sinterklaas books in our opinion, is Sinterklaas by Charlotte Dematons. She received The Golden Paintbrush for this book, which is a prestigious award in the Netherlands. It is a book without words, on a large format, containing beautiful detailed artwork with countless jokes, fun finds and special ideas from the artist.
The large prints depict the life of Sinterklaas and the Pieten, all year round. They all live happily together in the large villa of the Saint and everyone takes good care of the old man.The tasks are nicely divided and everyone contributes to give the children in the Netherlands and Belgium a great celebration.
3 bright golden stars for Sinterklaas, from the readers and their little listeners!
