The king and the shepherd boy gazed above

At a beautiful starlit night

The shepherd boy dozed as the Eastern king rose

For one star was unusually bright.

He ran to his friends with their scrolls and their pens

(In truth they were Magi, not kings)

"Come quick! Let us hurry! Too long have we studied!

This star can mean only one thing!

One thing, one thing,

This star can mean only one thing!

This imaginatively illustrated book tells the story of what happened when a poor shepherd boy and a rich king met a very special baby. Although very different, both discover that Jesus is the saviour everyone needs, no matter who they are.
