Synopsis
A heart-tugging tale of a boy who discovers the true meaning of Christmas through his friendship with a troubled little girl., Dr. Christopher Ringle is the last person you'd expect to find moonlighting as Santa Claus at the mall on the day after Thanksgiving. But it is there that he meets a young man named Molar Alan, who desperately needs a new perspective on the underlying value of Christmas. Dr Ringle recruits Mo and his older brother as volunteers at a nearby children's hospital for the holiday season. At the hospital, Mo is asked to help bring holiday cheer to the young cancer patients on the fifth floor. His biggest challenge is befriending a decidedly angry girl who is so embarrassed by her scarred appearance that she hides her face behind a paper bag. Almost in spite of himself, Mo finds that Christmas joy emanates from a source far greater than the North pole, while the young girl learns that she is more beautiful than she had ever imagined. Together they discover that the true spirit of Christmas is alive and well in the hearts of those who earnestly seek it., Dr. Christopher Ringle is the last person you'd expect to find moonlighting as Santa Claus at the mall on the day after Thanksgiving.

    You have to read to the end for the excellent choice of the title.

    The book is short and easily read. There are many little substories that come together with a great ending. Have a box of Kleenex close.

  • Fantastic book

    Should be made into a movie. What a way to get into the Christmas spirit. Great writing, feel like you know the characters personally. Plays with all your emotions, but you feel so good after reading it.

  • Two boys learn what Christmas is all about!

    I was disappointed that the cover did not match the photo. I bought it to read to grandchildren and thought the picture on the front was wonderful. When it arrived there was no picture at all, simply writing. Other than that, I am very pleased!!! It arrived quickly! In the condition stated.
