Great Christmas lesson

My six year old daughter just read the book. In such a materialistic time of the year, this beautiful simple story packs such powerful lessons about how we can bless with what seemingly is so little and how a thankful perspective enriches our lives. The art work was done well - it made the story even more alive.

Reading List Addition!

Alice Faye Duncan has done it once again! Christmas Soup is an easy read for children with a universal message. The book demonstrates the generosity of the human spirit and the way children learn through examples. Great book!

The REAL Meaning of Christ-mas!

Recently, while searching the children's area of my local bookstore, I stumbled upon this classic story. In a nutshell, it is a book which teaches young children that God's abundance is released when we pray and when we share what we have with others. Yep,here is a modern day tale (with comedy) about old-fashioned ideals like caring and sharing with your neighbor. A must have for all ages!!!!!
