Emma is distressed to learn that her Grandmother's flight has been canceled, so Grandmother will not be there on Christmas morning. Not only that, but the forecast calls for "no snow." Fortunately, Grandmother sent Emma's present early and calls to tell her to go ahead and open it. Emma finds boots, mittens, and a scarf. She sets out to buy the morning paper for her mother, and on the trip she gives away all her presents to people who need them more than she does. As she nears her home, a bus stops, and Grandmother gets off. It begins to snow.

This is a gem. Parents won't mind reading such a charming little story over and over. This is important, because this is the kind of book that children will ask for as long as they want to be read to. Even very young children will enjoy the vivid colors of the amusing illustrations splash across the page. The ending gives you pleasurable goosebumps because it's so good.I honestly wouldn't let another Christmas go by without letting your children enjoy this book.
Wonderful!
