Rain For Christmas
By: Pamela K Turner
When Chloe tires of another rainy West Coast Christmas, she takes matters into her own hands and with the help of Santa, finds magic and the true meaning of Christmas.
This beautifully written and illustrated book reminds us of what is important at Christmas time. The holiday season can be full of stress and our expectations about Christmas holidays often leave us disappointed, as our Christmas experiences often fall short of what we hoped for. The realities of Christmas can be vastly different from those depicted in movies or tv, and our hustle and bustle to make it perfect can leave us feeling blue.The weather is gloomy and so is Chloe’s mood. She is tired of rain and Christmas days that feel soggy. She decides to elicit help from the big man himself to ensure that Christmas is perfect. Rain For Christmas shows a young girl’s journey as she slogs through a grey Christmas but manages in the end to find what truly matters. It will warm the reader’s heart and help to provide the reader with a way to see the beauty and meaning in the small but important moments we have with family.
