Summary
At Christmas, a middle aged man and his aged parents reflect back on the terrible Christmas Eve in 1933 when a father got lost in a blizzard with toys bought on credit so a five year-old boy would find the magic of the season under his Christmas tree. The child's holiday excitement is set against the troubling realities of the Depression in a story that stresses the hardy values of a rural family and the ultimate warmth of that Christmas morning.
