Book Description

Every mother has a treasure box. This touching story takes place on a quiet night several years after the death of Jesus, as Mary shares memories from her treasure box with her granddaughter Sarah. Am ong the items are straw from the manger, wool from the shepherds and the gifts of the Magi, gold, frankincense and myrrh. When Sarah asks why there is so little gold and frankincense but so much myrrh, Mary reminds her that when she went to anoint Jesus' body with the myrrh, he was risen. A touching story that will soon be a classic best-seller.

5.0 out of 5 stars Going to become a Christmas classic., October 19, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Mary's Treasure Box (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful story of Jesus that can be read to children. It describes, in terms that are familiar to them, the story of Christ's birth and his life. The relationship between Mary and her granddaughter Sarah is one that most mothers and grandmothers can appreciate. Most mothers have a tresure box--even if it is only a picture album. Everyone has past memories that are cherished. Certain to become a classic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Work!, August 1, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Mary's Treasure Box (Hardcover)
Carolyn Kramlich creates a wonderful tapestry which brings the story of Christ's birth alive to anyone. The concept is applicable to today in that we all need to pass on those things that are dear to our hearts, mainly our faith. My church had a short drama wherein a mother read this story to her child on Christmas Eve. It brought tears to everyone's eyes because this same love that Mary felt for her Son is the same emotion that Christians feel for their Savior. After having personally met the author myself, I must say that her faith and love show through in her writing. I highly recommend this book! (It's a great Christmas present for anyone with children!)
