Christmas With The Wise Men

“Fun” is Dr. Buffington’s middle name. Interesting, relatable, engaging, insightful and entertaining are all adjectives that describe this author. From academic works to his latest book, Christmas With The Wise Men, Dr. Buffington truly covers the gambit.  In this sequel to Christmas in Angel Land, the ‘little professor’ is at it again!  After his trip to Angel Land last Christmas, where he found a way to fix an angel’s broken wings, Carson somehow, someway, managed to find himself travelling back in time with “Three Wise Men.” But before this new adventure, he reunited with his friends (including his nemesis, Wanda) and made it through the 3rd Grade Nativity Pageant. It looked like it would be a quiet, uneventful Christmas until his Angel Land pals called the Little Professor into action. Now, Carson played a surprising role at the very first Nativity. As the Wise Men followed the star and moved closer to the Nativity on that very, very first Christmas Day, one catastrophic event, a surprising twist of fate, and an unexpected mystery made it another Christmas to remember. It’s a story of five gifts to the Christ Child. Four questions answered. Three Wise Men redeemed. Two miracles manifested. And one mystery solved.
