An Artificial Christmas: A Youth Finds a Tree Decorated with Secrets, Lies, and Holiday Terror (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798495495456)

If you're looking for a typical Christmas Story, well, you've found one - Not!

Miguelito couldn't stand having another Christmas without a tree or a homemade knitted present again. So traditionally, his parents celebrated instead by exchanging one gift at their Christmas Eve meal and a church visit the following day. Not cool since coming to America, when his schoolmates discover a wealth of presents under their trees from Santa.

Born sickly into a poor family, who struggled to learn new ways and language, Miguelito became desperate to share in the holiday customs and, for once, enjoy Christmas with Santa's help. So, when he found a tossed-out artificial tree in the trash and brought it home one day, he started a bizarre, creepy, and supernatural Christmas he would never forget!

Will Miguelito learn the true meaning of Christmas or continue to hang his dreams on a pretty tree? Discover the twists and turns fate has in store for the youngster in The Artificial Tree.

The Artificial Tree is a small snapshot of an immigrant families' son's struggle to fit in, being poor, sick, and disadvantaged during the most beautiful time of the year in a new country.
