Publisher Description

With Star Over Bethlehem, the beloved Queen of Mystery Agatha Christie shines in a totally unexpected way, offering readers a wondrous collection of poems and holiday short stories.

A retelling of the Christmas Story in a way you've never heard it before.

The fable of a donkey who carries a mother and child safely to Egypt.

The tale of a widow who dislikes people until she meets a stranger.

From the most popular writer of all time comes a treasured collection of short stories and poems celebrating the holiday season.

This special edition also contains a wealth of Agatha Christie rarities—not only all the stories, poems, and illustrations from her long out-of-print book Star over Bethlehem (1965) but also a reproduction of all her rare poetry from the two collections The Road of Dreams (1924) and Poems (1973).
