Review:
Rob wants to get his father something special for Christmas this year -- something that shows how much he really loves him. But it's Christmas Eve, and he doesn't have much money to spend. What could he possibly get? Suddenly, Rob thinks of the best gift of all... This is one of my favorite Christmas stories. If shows the true spirit of giving. I read this with my Honors English class last week as an into to the author and her style. It is a very light hearted story with a lot of meaning. I highly recommend it as a complimentary text to The Good Earth. A welcome addition to any holiday collection, this timeless treasure will bring the true meaning of Christmas to the entire family for generations to come.illustrated version: Christmas Day in the Morning
