Summary: A wonderful holiday gift for the whole family!
Comment: A wonderful holiday gift for the whole family! Lauren Thompson's beautifully written retelling of O. Henry's "Gift of the Magi" exemplifies the true meaning of Christmas. Jim Burke's full page oil paintings are spectacular! From the school girls gazing into the antique shop window on their way home, to the touching moment when Grace must decide whether or not to trade in her cherished doll in order to have "A Christmas Gift for Mama" -- this book is a precious gift for anyone who receives it.

Summary: The Most Sought After Book of This Holiday Season
Comment: To say that Jim Burke is a gifted picture book illustrator is an understatement. Right on the heels of his huge success with MY BROTHERS'FLYING MACHINE comes his newest awe-inspiring A CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR MAMA. In this book, Burke's gentle pictures offer the reader an inside view of a tender mother-daughter relationship that burgeons in spite of fierce adversity.Thompson's heartwarming text and Burke's rich paintings filled with warmth come together to create what is destined to be the most sought after holiday book of the season. Burke's painstaking research into the lifestyle, clothing and toys (especially the china dolls) of the 1930's, immediately transport the reader into the lavish world of the affluent society of this era.
It is not surprising that this book has won the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio "Best Book" Award for this holiday season.
It is a book that truly depicts the magic that happens when families take the time to know and cherish what matters most in life- love and time for each other.
Don't miss this one! It's Jim Burke at his finest!
