An African American boy considers the meaning of giving and sharing and comes to understand the true spirit of Christmas.

In this delightfully original Christmas story, our young narrator is thrilled. His favorite holiday is coming, and he looks forward to the presents, a great big tree, and baking a chocolate cake with his grandmother. But soon he starts to wonder: What happens to all the trees that get cut down and don't make it to the next Christmas? And what about all the people who don't have a place to live or food to eat or presents in a stocking/or under a tree? His thoughts shift -- maybe he should give his extra presents to kids who don't have any, and give homeless people hats, gloves, and scarves. He realizes that Christmas is really about community, people coming together and helping each other. Christmas makes me think/about others/and not just me! His thoughtfulness leads to a magical celebration of the real spirit of Christmas.
