The Wise Man's Last Wish: a Christmas Tale Marilee Alexander

On a clear, dark night, three Wise Men follow a bright star that leads them to baby Jesus, lying in a manger. Years later, the memory of that brilliant star and tiny babe stays with one of the Wise Men. He loves to tell the story of his long-ago journey, and how that small baby touched and changed his heart. One day he hears that a man who preaches love is coming. He waits among the people gathered to hear Jesus speak and is moved to follow His teachings. After Jesus' death, the Wise Man makes a magical wish...and his life will be forever changed! Marilee Alexander's poignant story, illustrated with Gisele Nash's beautiful artwork, will delight the hearts of children everywhere. A classic Christmas story-with a surprising twist!
