Summary: Christmas in the 1800's
Comment: This is a quaint book which portrays a unique twist on the Christmas story. Those individuals who have grown up on the coastal SC/GA islands will recognize the style of grammar as that of Gullah or Geechee. This book could be considered as "racially controversial" in these times, however, it must be understood that it harkens back to a earlier century and that should guide the reader. Those individuals who have not experienced Gullah/Geechee before, might have a difficult time reading and pronouncing words in this book.

It is interesting how Roark spins the tale of Jesus, and Santa Claus and how at the end of this short story, both of them seem so necessary to make our Christmas story complete. For me, it will be a tradition to read out load at Christmastime. A must read!
