Free Sparkle Box included with every book Sam is so excited about Christmas He's thinking about his Christmas list, anticipating holiday parties, and puzzling over one very mysterious gift--a sparkly box sitting on the mantel above the fireplace. In the midst of the festivities, Sam and his family participate in various acts of kindness to others. On Christmas morning, when Sam finally opens the Sparkle Box, he finds only slips of paper that record the family's good deeds. Sam's parents explain that the things that they've been doing for others are, in fact, a gift for Jesus--for Jesus said that whatever we do for the least of these, we do for Him. This heartfelt story will inspire readers to adopt this faith-centered tradition in their own homes. Includes a glitter-coated, fold-out Sparkle Box for families
This is an excellent way to help bring meaning back to the craziness Christmas can often become. I cry every time I read this. It is one way I try to help my kids to get the message of what Christmas is really about. The Sparkle Box under your tree or on the mantel is a great reminder (if you don't know, inside the Sparkle Box are slips of paper, written with the acts of kindness you did leading up to Christmas to then give to Jesus on his birthday). Wonderful illustrations. Lots of care put into the words and this message.
