Description: "Wise men" is the usual translation of "magi", the word used to describe Jesus' three visitors in the early Greek texts of the New Testament. Magi were priestly magicians or philosophers who studied astrology and were believed to have occult powers. Gold, frankincense and myrrh were the precious offerings they brought to Jesus, but who were these men and why did they choose such gifts? This volume, illustrated in colour with masterpieces from the Medieval and Renaissance collections of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, tells the story of the Magi and the history and lore of their gifts. In addition, a "gift of the gifts" is included: 24ct Gold in a glass bottle and two mesh bags containing frankincense and myrrh.

Description: In this delightful Christmas Chronicles tale, the first lady of Christmas herself tells the story of how she and a very brave group of people once saved a treasured holiday from being lost forever. It's 1620, and Mrs Claus' dear husband is off in the New World, planting the seeds for what will become a glorious Christmas tradition. Meanwhile, Mrs Claus has chosen to stay in England, where the first signs of a dangerous threat to Yuletide cheer are in evidence. The Puritans have gained control of Parliament and appear determined to take all the joy out of Christmas. But Mrs Claus knows that it's time for serious action when, in 1647, a law is passed by Parliament that actually punishes anyone who celebrates Christmas. Based on the actual events of a day in 1647, when ten thousand peasants marched through the streets of Canterbury demanding their right to celebrate a beloved holiday, "How Mrs Claus Saved Christmas" is rich in historical detail, adventure and plain ol' Christmas fun.
