The Christmas Box is the perfect holiday story. It is a short read and a true story which helped me start a New Christmas Tradition with my Daughter each year. I love old boxes, trunks, train cases and often wonder about the places they have been and the treasures they have held. Each year I choose an old box and fill it with treasures for my daughter, lock it and give her husband the key for her to open Christmas morning. As the book says, "The Christmas Box remains a source of great joy to me, for though it appears empty, to me it contains all that Christmas is made of, the root of all the wonders in a childs eyes, and the source of magic of Christmases for centuries to come. More than giving, more than believing, for these are the mere manifestations of the contents of the box. The sacred contents of that box are a parents pure love for child, manifested first by a Fathers love for all his children, as he sacrificed that which he loved most and sent his son to earth on Christmas day so long ago. Read and enjoy the season!Read full review
Book is in very nice condition for being used. There is a small glue mess on the back of the book cover, but nothing that would affect the reading of the book. I was happy to find it again after all these years.

The Christmas Box reminds me of my childhood in the UK when we would give “Christmas Boxes” usually to those who regularly served us throughout the year. The Christmas Box was usually a small gift of money. Mr Evans book is truly a gift easily absorbed by all readers and for me after the last ‘damp’ page page ended, I have carried the books message with me and feel it will linger in my mind. A tale simply told with great and enduring effect.

Thia ia great read. Very inspiring. This author really has a gift for writing. His descriptions make you feel like you are there. He really brings the pages to life. He has a unique writing style that is real special. Also this is a great series that is short enough to read in a evening or sunday afternoon. Is my favorite author to date..
The book was in excellent condition. I read this book every year starting on December 6th. If you read the book you will understand why. I lent my copy to a friend and never got it back, so I had to order another copy for myself. It doesn't take long to read and it is a very heartwarming story.
