Description

The stories in Gifts to Last are all connected with getting home, being home, or staying home for Christmas. Warm-hearted, funny and serious at the same time, they embody Christmas wisdom at its best. Gifts to Last contains stories by the region's finest writers. Among them are “Nutbeam's Christmas,” written by Herb Curtis; Joseph Sherman’s “A Jewish Child's Christmas in Cape Breton” “Home for Christmas,” by PEI children’s author Deirdre Kessler; and “Oh, Oh, Oh,” Ellison Robertson’s hilarious yet poignant story of two Santas fighting in the back of a pickup truck.
