If you're looking for the story about Hermie, the Abdominal, Yukon Corneilius and the Island of Misfit Toys, this is NOT your book! This book is the original story written in 1939. It is written in poetry form and it is beautiful. It is very well illustrated and a definite keeper. My kids loved ...

What Star Is This? 1 review Joseph Slate
Putnam Juvenile, 2005
A Sweet Book
What a nice surprise we found in this story. It is the perfect Christmas book. The star goes through the galaxy and ends up shining over baby Jesus. Our grandchildren, ages 5 and 3, wanted it read over and over again.

The Fourth King: The Story of the Other Wise Man

A kindhearted king plays a bigger role in the Nativity than he realizes in this ode to unsung heroes everywhere. Once upon a time, three kings came out of a distant land and followed a star across the desert.
