In the tradition of O. Henry's "The Gift of the Magi," the seven stories in this collection capture that special time of the year when people become larger than themselves, when the atmosphere crackles with anticipation, when miracles do happen. Based on the author's memories of Christmases in 1950s through 1970s Canada, the stories all in one way or another evoke nostalgic reminiscences of home and family. Each story is richly complemented by an original, full-page Tim Steven illustration.
