BUY THIS BOOK

Perhaps I am just a sucker for a Christmas story, but I like this one very much. And, I always appreciate how a professional author can take a story that seems simple and then at the end..... well, no, I really can't tell you. You'll have to read it for yourself. I do not give this a five star rating, however, as I don't feel that the conversations found in the book were as strong as they could have been, especially at the beginning, though they did improve later in the book. My suggestion: BUY THIS BOOK.
