The Sparkle Box *Giveaway* - 2012 Gift Guide

The Sparkle Box by Jill Hardie

About The Book:
Sam is so excited about Christmas! He's thinking about his Christmas list, looking forward to holiday parties, and puzzling over one very mysterious gift: a sparkly box sitting on the mantel. In the midst of the festivities, Sam and his family participate in various acts of kindness to others. On Christmas morning, when Sam finally opens the Sparkle Box, he finds only slips of paper that record the family's good deeds. Sam's mom explains that the things that they've been doing are, in fact, a gift for Jesus, for Jesus said that whatever we do for those in need, we do for Him.

My Thoughts:
This book is what Christmas is all about! And it helps show your child that! The book comes with a sparkle box, so you can start your own family tradition. What a great idea, and a super lovely book!

About The Author:
Author Jill Hardie and her family began placing a gift for Jesus under their Christmas tree as a way of bringing more meaning to the holiday. The first time they opened His gift, the commercialism of the season melted away and they felt a profound joy and peace. Jill hopes that The Sparkle Box will spark a new Christmas tradition, bringing light into thousands of lives.
 
I recieved a complimentary review copy of this book from Flyby Promotions in exchange for a review on my blog. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

    I'd love to win this. I'd like to write on little pieces of paper nice things to do for the homeless or a needy child and take one or two out every yr and do that one thing.Then on the back of it put how we felt by helping someone who needed it. I think this will help my neices see how many poor people there are in out city. Thank you for the wonderful giveaway! :)
