In this heartfelt, beautifully told story, a young girl comes to see the comfort of traditions after a loved one has died. Chloe doesn't want to go to Grandpa's for Christmas now that Grandma won't be there to share her warm hugs, delicious cocoa, and handmade thingamajigs, the ornaments she crafted for Chloe each year. Christmas will not be the same, so Chloe would rather not have it at all. Her grandfather's gentle encouragement and a last gift from Grandma show Chloe the bittersweetness of memories and traditions, and how they help you "face the new things," the things you have to make up as you go along.
I read. The Christmas Thingamajig.I think it was a pretty good book. I think it would be better if they didn't talk about someone being dead.other than that I really like it. I think other people should read it. It teaches kids a great lesson on how to handle losing someone. I would recommend it to kids the ages of five to ten, but it is a great book for a mother to read to her child of any age. I definetly recommend this book.
