A boy is punished then forgiven on Christmas day.

Merged review:

Nothing much here. It focusses on Van Dyke's The Other Wise Man but doesn't do much with it.

Merged review:

A teacher is coerced into being Santa Claus; learns an important lesson.

Merged review:

This was a pretty good collection of the writer's personal memories of Christmas. All have a very simple yet warming message of love and generosity.

Merged review:

A sweet story in which the writer spends Christmas in the hospital.

Merged review:

The writer spends Christmas in Bali. Didn't enjoy this one much. It led me to discover that apparently it snows in Bethlehem though.

Merged review:

About a somewhat unconventional Christmas paegant.

Merged review:

A Christian family and a Jewish family share Christmas and Hanukkah.

Helps bring the true meaning of Christmas to the reader

Beautifully colored and illustrated book of delightful Christmas stories.

I love this book. I try to read it every year at Christmas.

One of my all time favorite books. Leo Buscaglia captures the heart and beauty of love, family and faith in each of these stories. I read it every Christmas.
