A good book, especially one that stands the test of time, is a gift that keeps on giving. I still have books on my shelf at home that I received for Christmas when I was a child. Here are a few good books to give this holiday season. The holidays are not an easy time for change, as young Clee and Simon, find out. Gramma is moving into an apartment from the family home where they have always celebrated Christmas.
Nothing is left in the big old house except an old upright piano, which is for sale.
Clee, Simon and Gramma are waiting in the empty house for a prospective buyer to show up. When he does all wet, cold and grumpy from fighting his way through a snowstorm he finds fault with the old piano. Chipped ivory, he mutters as he fingers a deep scratch in the side. It s very old and more than likely won t hold a tune. When Gramma sits down and plays Silent Night to prove him wrong, she understands that the piano is far more valuable than the buyer knows.
