Christmas Day in the Morning: Awakening the Joy of Christmas

Continuing to read some, "Christmas in July" books with my reading buddy Darla ππβοΈποΈ
After reading the original story earlier we decided to read this newly adapted 2020 story by David Warner.
The little boy is now a grown man and thinks of his father often and that one special Christmas many long years ago. This Christmas he decides he'd like to show his wife how much she means to him. He's thought up a sweet Christmas surprise for her. It's charming. It follows the same idea as the first book. Giving from the heart β₯οΈ The story also contains a beautiful Christmas hymn. It's hard to top the original. I needed a little more from this one.
Please check out Darla's wonderful review as well.

Terrific review, Tina. You did such a good job of explaining why this book did not quite get all the stars. Can't wait to see what we read next!π

Phenomenal review, Tina! Despite falling short of the original, I am happy you found enjoyment in this edition as well. β₯οΈβ‘β₯οΈ
Based on the heatwave many of us are experiencing here in North America, your theme sounds like a fun way to cool off. This sounds like a lovely read, Tina!
