Good story but not worth a credit

This should be in the included free titles. 45 minute story doesn’t merit a credit.

My kids love this book

Each of my three children love this Christmas story. My girls have read it during the holidays every year for about 5 years in a row. Last year I got it on audible for my son who wasn't old enough to read the book himself but was old enough to appreciate the story. Great story, gets you in the mood for Christmas.

Feel Good Story

A nice Christmas story to remind everyone of the real meaning of the season. My kids thought this story was awesome and enjoyable.

Healthy, Refreshing Vegan Bend

This story is chock full of traditional values and good feelings. Two small kids both wise beyond their years head to grandparent's farm for a Christmas visit. Favorite pastimes are going to the small town library and enjoying visiting with grandparents and the farm animals. Boy has deep empathy for animals, and develops a special bond with a white cow who appears to be lonely. The siblings unite to help her out, with Grandma to the rescue. Ideal for kids and families and adults. No racy content at all, no strong liberal bend. Just family hanging out with family and working together to make the world a better place.
