Review:

Do you have a special tradition that you share with your family during the Christmas holiday? The authors of this story had a father and grandfather who were Italian immigrants who started this story with their family. Since they were Italian immigrants, at a time when poverty was the norm, they couldn’t afford gifts but they could share the story of the magic of Christmas. Thus creating a wonderful family tradition to be carried from generation to generation.

Siblings Victoria, Joseph and John gathered around to listen ot their father tell them the story behind a very special Christmas ornament. Their father told them when he was seven he found this special ornament in a tree and he has put it on the tree every year since. That night, the children snuck downstairs to admire it and something very magical happened when a burst of cold air crashed through the window and they saw Santa sitting at the North Pole inside the ornament.

This delightful tale of family history and tradition is perfect to be shared around the holidays. Families can sit together and read this story and share in their own traditions and tales of magic and blessings they’ve received. Sharing family traditions are a wonderful way to get kids engaged and instill that Christmas is a time of family not just presents under the tree.
