This ancient story traces the adventures of the Little Czar who sets off to follow the star but does not make it to Betlehem in time. A precious book that can be read for simple enchantment or to look into a kaleidoscope of life itself. While most probably told from generation to generation, this magical story has never quite been written like this — with such charming imagination and deep love for the human and for the divine. Edzard Schaper is a grand storyteller who, it seems, has absorbed the spirit of a whole people.
