I have given all my copies away!!
My English teacher read this to my class in Grade 12, and I remember crying in class. Very touching story which reminds us of the meaning of Christmas. I have purchased this for the children and adults in my life so many times that I have run out of copies. I guess that Amazon doesn't mind that...

What we build is where we dwell
I inherited this book 13 years ago. Since that time, I have incorporated it into my thinking on a daily basis. The significant point of the story is "What Counts, That which is truly given; Only that good that is done for the love of doing it; Only those plans in which the wellfare of others is the master thought; Only those labors in which the sacrifice was greater than the reward. And only ...

The truest gift is love
I remember reading this story and seeing the TV movie when I was a boy. Recently, I mentioned the story to a friend of the family and she had never heard of it. It is a shame that a classic story that tells of true devotion and sacrifice has been forgotten. This is a story that once read, will remain with you and help guide you in your daily life. It helps to remind us that ". . . when you ...

Beautiful Story
This book should be on the gift list for everyone you know! The original story was written by Henry Van Dyke (1852-1933). Susan Summers has rewritten and brought forth such gorgeous illustrations of a very special tale! No holiday season should go by without bringing this wonderful book out to read in a cozy gathering around the fireplace. The Fourth Wise Man tells the story of Artaban who had ...

The Story of the Fourth Wise Man
I have taught religious education to sixth grade children for 8 years, and I always read them "The Story of the Fourth Wise Man." I can never read it aloud without crying. In all the years I've taught, the children are captivated by the story and I always get a volunteer to finish the story. This year I am teaching seventh grade. Today, I received an e-mail from one of my children asking ...

Legend
Van Dyke does not write story, or myth, but legend. You feel it in every pulse of his words, and every dwelling of his thoughts, that here is something greater than everyday life, which exists within the day to day, but is of a time far removed, much like our own time. His prose is beauty, and I find myself repeatedly returning to phrases and turns of idea and sentences, catching myself on the ...
