Editorial Review: Product Description: Through all the mix-ups and misunderstandings, amid the chaos and confusion, the true spirit of Christmas begins to emerge in unexpected ways for one woman as God shows her the true meaning of giving. Unwrapping Christmas is a Christmas story as heartwarming as the season itself. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - By the numbersIn this novella, Rose is the mother of teenagers and the wife of a man who works long hours. Rose is no less busy, devoting herself to numerous charitable and church-related activities. As Christmas nears, Rose finds herself pulled in several directions at once. A woman at church is worried about a lump in her breast, and Rose wants to comfort her. Another woman's son is using drugs, and Rose wants to comfort her.

Stressed to the limit, she is trying to please everyone who asks her to do something, from hosting the family holiday dinner to helping out at church functions. Her family is reduced to eating take-out dinners every night, her children have run amok, and her husband ...

With the baby boomers having time to read now, you would think they would print more books in a large print & not charge such a high price for them. Surely a few pieces of extra paper does not cost that much and you know they are making money off each book anyway. It's actually depriving a person from the joy of reading if not printed in the large ... Read More Rating: - A gift of hopeI'm not a religious person but the story touched me. I recommend the book for the story and the Christmas season.
