The Gift of the Magi is a short story written by O. Henry, but this particular edition is illustrated by Robert Collier. The story follows a young couple, Jim and Della, who are struggling financially but wish to buy each other meaningful Christmas gifts. Della sells her long, beautiful hair to a wig-maker to buy Jim a chain for his pocket watch, while Jim sells his watch to buy Della a set of combs for her hair. On Christmas Eve, they reveal their gifts to each other and realize the sacrifices they have made for love. The story is a touching tale of selflessness and the true meaning of gift-giving. Collier's illustrations add a visual element to the story and enhance the reader's experience.THIS 78 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Secret of the Ages, by Robert Collier.
