VERY Funny!

This started a little down (not the first chapter, but the second) but it turned around very quickly!
Great for multiple age listeners, BUT be aware, it might not be for young true believers (it takes place before and during Christmas) ;)
Full of humor and heart submitted by hduke on June 22, 2019, 12:12pm A tale of generosity and kindness, full of humor and heart. I love A Long Way from Chicago and A Year Down Yonder, but a Season of Gifts might be my favorite book staring Grandma Dowel, and being able to listen to it on CD just makes it better :)
