About this title

From the Back Cover:

This book is the result of thousands of letters asking for a version of THE GREATEST SALESMAN IN THE WORLD that can be passed on to young people. In response, we have produced this new easy-to-read, beautifully illustrated version called THE GREATEST GIFT IN THE WORLD.

Here is the story of Hafid, a camel boy living two thousand years ago, and his burning desire to improve his position in life. He is dispatched to Bethlehem by his master, the caravan merchant Pathros, to sell only one robe. Hafid fails and in a moment of pity and compassion, gives the robe to warm a newborn baby in a cave near an inn. Hafid returns to the caravan in shame but is accompanied by a bright star shining above his head. This phenomenon is interpreted by Pathros to be a sign from the gods, and he gives Hafid ten ancient scrolls, which contain the wisdom necessary for the boy to achieve all his ambitions.

Hafid used the scrolls to become a compassionate and wise human being. And what they accomplished for him they can also achieve for you.

We are sure you will enjoy this illustrated version of THE GREATEST SALESMAN IN THE WORLD.
