"You know the story of the three Wise Men who came from the East to offer their gifts at the manger in Bethlehem. But have you heard the story of the fourth Wise Man who also saw the Star and set out to follow it? Artaban did not arrive with the other three to honor the Child Jesus, but his was a long, strange journey in search of a King." Beautifully illustrated, this is a classic fireside reader; a story to become an annual family tradition at Epiphany.

You know the story of the Three Wise Men of the East, and how they traveled from far away to offer their gifts at the manger-cradle in Bethlehem. But have you ever heard the story of the Fourth Wise Man, who also saw the star rising and set out to follow it, yet did not arrive with the other Magi? The story is an addition and expansion of the account of the Biblical Magi, recounted in the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament. It tells about a "fourth" wise man (assuming the tradition that the Magi numbered three to be true), a priest of the Magi named Artaban, from Persia. Like the other Magi, he sees signs in the heavens proclaiming that a King had been born among the Jews. Like them, he sets out to see the newborn ruler, carrying treasures to give as gifts to the child - a sapphire, a ruby, and a "pearl of great price". However, he stops along the way to help a dying man, which makes him late to meet with the caravan of the other three Wise Men. He then begins his journey alone, but arrives in Bethlehem three days late, too late to see the child, whose parents have fled to Egypt. After thirty-three years, Artaban is still a pilgrim, still searching for the King. He arrives in Jerusalem in time for the crucifixion of Jesus. After being hit on the head by a falling tile, a voice tells him "Verily I say unto you, inasmuch as you have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto me," and he dies in a calm radiance of wonder and joy. His treasures were accepted, and the Fourth Wise Man found his King.

"I do not know where this little story came from--out of the air, perhaps. One thing is certain, it is not written in any other book, nor is it to be found among the ancient lore of the East. And yet I have never felt as if it were my own. It was a gift, and it seemed to me as if I knew the Giver." --Henry Van Dyke Long, long ago, a wise man named Artaban, a priest of the Magi, discerned from heavenly signs that the time was at hand for the fulfillment of an ancient prophecy--the birth among the Hebrews of a holy Prince and Deliverer of Man. Hastening to join three fellow Magi for the long journey into Judaea, he paused to help a dying man and was left behind. And so Artaban began his pilgrimage alone, striking out not toward the realization of his life's deepest longing, as he hoped, but only toward misfortune and suffering. Or so he believed until one blessed, radiant moment. With an introduction by Leo Buscaglia

In this richly illustrated Christmas story, four wise astronomers travel in search of the newborn king. Three of them choose splendid gifts gold, frankincense, and myrrh. But what can the fourth wise man bring? The problem is solved quite by accident when the fourth wise man's special gift is "a little bit of heaven itself." The young astronomer captures the special star's nighttime reflection in a jar of water and offers the glittering gift to the "king of heaven." Features and Benefits A heart-warming retelling of an ancient French legend shows that there is more to Christmas than anything money can buy. A Christmas story with a twist: four Wise men venture out to find the Christ-child instead of the traditional three. Brilliant, jewel-tone art with lots of detail for children to explore makes this book a perfect gift for the holiday season.

The story is an addition and expansion of the account of the Biblical Magi, recounted in the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament.

"This may be more than a novel of high achievement, in fact; it may be the best work so far of a truly daring writer."—America Displaying his characteristic penchant for the macabre, the tender and the comic, Michael Tournier presents the traditional Magi describing their personal odysseys to Bethlehem—and audaciously imagines a fourth, "the eternal latecomer"' whose story of hardship and redemption is the most moving and instructive of all. Prince of Mangalore and son of an Indian maharajah, Taor has tasted an exquisite confection, rachat loukoum, and is so taken by the flavor that he sets out to recover the recipe. His quest takes him across Western Asia and finally lands him in Sodom, where he is imprisoned in a salt mine. There, this fourth wise man learns the recipe from a fellow prisoner, and learns of the existence and meaning of Jesus.
