Summary: "Sunday Stories: Stories from the Old and New Testaments" by Catharine Shaw is a collection of religious stories intended for children, likely written in the late 19th century.

The narrative continues with "His Star," following the journey of the wise men who come to worship Jesus after being guided by a miraculous star. It concludes with "The Flight into Egypt," detailing Joseph's obedience to God's command to protect Jesus from King Herod's wrath by fleeing to Egypt with Mary and the infant Jesus.
