Three Kings, The The Journey of the Magi by G Elschner
The visit of the Three Kings to the stable at Bethlehem is one of the most memorable of the Christmas stories. Filled with anticipation, and following an unknown star, the Magi begin the long quest to find the new-born king and to offer him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. The thoughtful, gentle text will engage readers of all ages.
"The text is accessible and engaging. . . A handsome and readable book that successfully illuminates the story of the three kings with images from the Renaissance. Recommended." Teri Markson, School Library Journal
