I read the story "A Christmas Story" and as a 33 year old I have been through some tough times myself but reading the story just made me cry like a baby... This is what Christmas really means. GOD has definetly left some Angels here on earth.

Whatever your religious persuasion, you can't help but crack a smile and shed a tear reading this book. It's not just for the holidays, but should be read year 'round. I've given it as a gift for many years now. And will continue the tradition with my own baby.

This little book reflects the true spirit of Christmas carried to the poor neighborhoods of N.Y.C., to children whose impoverished lives were made a little brighter by this stranger in a white beard. It's a treasure

As an elementary school teacher I love sharing this wonderful story of a jewish man who shares the wonder of giving hopeless children a chance at hope. By reading letters to Santa written by children with no hope of receiving anything for Christmas, Jay Frankston played Santa to the joy and wonder of children of all ages in the Cleveland area for twelve years. A great story of selfless giving.

I read the story of how you played Santa to the poor children. I had tears in my eyes and cried like a baby. This inspired me to do something for the children that have nothing. I went to our own post office and found some children of my own to play Santa to.

This is my favorite Christmas story. It speaks to the hopeful child in all of us, who wants to believe in the unseen magic of a jolly old elf. It touches me every year since I first discovered this gem. Its power comes from the fact that it's a true story. Do something nice for yourself and read it.

This little book was used by the minister of our Presbyterian church as part of his Christmas eve sermon and it made everyone feel the true spirit of Christmas

A perfect tale for reading aloud when the entire family is assembled for opening gifts. This is a classic

Just renews my faith in humanity and warms the cockles of my heart

This true Christmas story has the magic and the love which brings the real spirit of the season to us all. One of the most heart touching stories I have ever read
