I just finished reading the book The Christmas Box. I know it's after the Holidays, but I started reading it when things were hectic and just forgot about it. That is, until today at lunch.
This book truly is worth a read to any parent or soon to be parent. It asks the question, what was the first Christmas gift? It's love, time spent with loved ones, and knowing when you are selling diamonds to earn stones.
The book itself is relatively short and can be read in one setting for most regular readers. I on the other hand stretched it out over about 3-4 settings, mainly reading the book while my daughter took the time to eat her vegetables. So don't be intimidated and remember this inexpensive, $4.99, hard cover book as a Christmas gift for next year. Or it makes the perfect gift no matter the season.
