A Christmas Kindness, by author C.C. Gevry, brought tears to my eyes. This story touched me in so many ways because it is a story that chronicles what Christmas is all about.
Unfortunately,
current culture has turned Christmas into a money making machine, but A
Christmas Kindness will remind the reader that Christmas is more about giving
than receiving.
Eight-year-old
Robert arrives in the mall with his mom to tell Santa what’s on his list, but
have a life changing experience when he meets a boy named Glenn.
Robert’s
change of heart and actions demonstrate that a child is capable of making
decisions that will make his/her parents very proud. It brings to mind that children often model
what they learn from an adult, and we should be careful with our actions.

Mahey’s vivid illustrations help bring the characters to life. A Christmas Kindness will make a great
stocking stuffer. This delightful story
can be a great resource when teaching young children about the true meaning of
Christmas. It should be a part of every
school and church library.

This
well written story is a must read in all homes as it can teach young children
about responsibility and obedience.
I
love the underlying message that one always benefits when you trust God. Through trust and obedience Obed was able to
experience first-hand how God can bring about miracles even in difficult
situations.
This
delightful book will be a great addition to any church library.
