Christmas Is for Giving

This book is about teaching children the value of giving gifts at Christmas rather than receiving gifts. A Grandpa sits down with his three grandchildren on Christmas Eve to read Twas The Night Before Christmas. After the first page, his grandson Ben asks him what he wants for Christmas. Grandpa begins to tell the grandchildren a story of asking their parents to give gifts to others at Christmas. He asked his teenage children to give him a Christmas gift by giving to others. He also asked them to write him a letter explaining the gift and what it meant to them. These letters have become Grandpa's most precious gifts on Christmas morning. The grandchildren liked the stories about their parent's gifts to their Grandpa. They all promise to pass on the family tradition to their children.
