Summary:
"Whether you call your January 6th celebration El Dia de los Reyes or the Feast of the Epiphany, you're celebrating a day dedicated to the three kings. Sometimes called the three wise men or the magi, these figures are part of the Christmas story and often appear in nativity scenes during this time of year. In some places, they're more important than Santa Claus. In this volume, readers discover the history of the three kings' story as well as how they are celebrated in cultures around the world today." -- amazon.com
