   There is a volume by the title of:
    
		The Gnostic Gospels
    		Elaine Pagels
    		?1981 Vintage Books 

	
    Dr. Elaine Pagels is one of many who worked on translating a cache
    of codices found near Jabal al-Tarif, a section of cliff on the
    right bank marking the limit of the Nile valley and the arable land
    between Chenobskeia and Pabau. The fruit of that effort is recorded
    in a volume entitled:
    
    		The Nag Hammadi Library in English
    		James M. Robinson, General Editor
    		? 1978 Harper & Row

    I believe, however, that it is the Infancy Gospels of "The Lost Books
    of the Bible and the Forgotten Books of Eden" that contain the relating
    of the events that you have described in your note. As far as I
    know all three of these works are currently available or orderable
    through most booksellers.
    

What follows is a listing of the contents of 

"The Lost Books of The Bible and The Forgotten Books of Eden",

"The Nag Hammadi Library", and

"The Apocrypha".
