The Gifts

By Kate Labahn

Two stories that take place at two different Christmas times. Jim and Della struggle during hard times in 1906 New York City. Della has gorgeous hair, and Jim has a beautiful watch. Each of the young lovers decide to give up their most prized possessions to get a Christmas present for the other. Annabelle and Henry each run special shops in the city that have the gifts Jim and Della want, but when Annabelle does much more than help Della, hers and Jim's love for each other will be put to a series of tests.Wink was an elf baby orphaned in the woods after a winter storm. He is found by Santa Claus and raised by him and his wife. After being mentored by Elibet, Wink becomes a skilled inventor of new toys, until the year 1517, when his creative inspiration runs dry. Santa sends him to England to help a young girl named Penny; she and her grandparents are also struggling. Penny and Wink become friends, and each inspires in the other a new creative spirit of gift giving during Christmas time.
