Christmas in My Heart Book 1
A TREASURY OF OLD-FASHIONED CHRISTMAS STORIES
Dr. Wheeler has dedicated a lifetime to track down elusive Christmas stories. From several thousand he has chosen those that for generation after generation have continued to be most loved and cherished. Powerful and emotive they are timeless in their ability to help us experience the joy wonder and true meaning of Christmas. Their message of unselfish love and personal involvement turns our thoughts to Christ and reminds us every time we read them that this is really what Christmas?and life itself?is all about.
It is Dr. Wheeler?s sincere wish that these stories will become your friends too to be read and reread as you and your loved ones make them an integral part of your own Christmas traditions and memories.
Some of the fondest memories of my childhood are tied to hearing my mother read Christmas stories to our family. Not one of them was just a Christmas story; each had the ability to make us laugh or cry to tug at our heartstrings to remind us that only a Christ-filled Christmas had any meaning at all.?Joe L. Wheeler.
