Book Reviews
Heartwarming, Inspiring, Uplifting, Superb- "These stories are written with mastery and touch upon the timeless natures of love, hope, faith, struggle, and determination. Anyone reading this book, at any time of the year, not just Christmas, will feel a sense of spirit and truth that lay deep within us all. The day to day world has a way of stripping these from us. This author has a marvelous talent for helping us find them again and again and again." -- Kindle Customer
Great addition to your Christmas library- "Like a modern day O-Henry, Dave Jacinto invites us into a world where Christmas serves as a reminder of the two most important things in life: family and faith. It’s a beautiful book, and the illustrations are gorgeous. I recommend these stories as a delightful addition to your family Christmas traditions.” --M. Faulkner
Beautiful Book- "First, I want to say that this book offers more than Christmas stories. It was inspiring to see how we are all connected and the way that the Christmas season lends to greater love and compassion. What a sweet way to warm up during the often cold climate we live in. Love this book.” -- Debbie
Full of the Christmas Spirit- “These are heartwarming stories that made me laugh and cry. The author has done a great job capturing the Christmas Spirit. I have been collecting Christmas stories for 25 years and it has been a few years since I was able to find such a great addition to my collection.” --Dale Perkins
Perfect read for the Christmas season- "One of my favorite stories is The Biggest, Baddest Mad Dog in Town. At the age of thirteen, David Jacinto swam against Mark Spitz (a future gold medal Olympian) in a medley relay at the Junior Olympic Championship. As a mother of swimmers, I feel for David and all the members of his relay team as they battle for first in the championship final. This story is gripping and surprising—definitely worth the read. How does a swim championship relate to Christmas? You’ll have to read to find out.” --Brooke Favero
