heart-warming

Entertaining and heart felt insights into the Arthurs Christmas experiences. Short, brief, but enjoyable. Have read previously during Christmas season. Today sending to Boyd & Julie for their Christmas reading.

Sweet and short. I enjoyed reading about the authors first introduction to Hanukkah as well as about the Christmas Angel that Italians celebrate instead of Santa Claus.

Beautiful Christmas stories, upbeat positive and heartwarming.

Wonderful short book with some great Christmas recollections.

This is a sweet, beautiful collection of Christmasy stories. I'd forgotten I even had it until, Christmas morning, I noticed it on the bottom shelf. I think my very favorite story was "A Gift of Ravioli," where he recounts how, as a child, he learned the lesson from The Story of the Other Wise Man. "The Christmas Story According to Big Matthew" was also really fun. And the artwork is beautiful!

A collection of short biographical stories, this was a quick read. I have not read anything by this author before and with a quick Google search found out he was a professor here is California. Knowing these past Christmases shared are all from his life make this little book mean more. My favorite one is him being Santa as a teacher. It was a nice read, but one I will give away. I don't see myself reading this one again.

I was gaga for Buscaglia in my youth and enjoyed this one more then. These are sweet, nostalgic stories with great illustrations.

Sweet, uplifting stories. Just what you want to read at Christmas.

Seven Christmas truffles for the mind to unwrap and savour. The stories are charming and full of love for his family, his friends, and all people. An easy to read delight to contribute to the spirit of Christmas in your life.

I found this to be one of the best dedications to the reminder of what the Christmas Season is truly about, and how each day of out lives should be celebrated, as well.

This is a typical Buscaglia book of short stories, composed many years ago but still appropriate and apreciated today!
