Five stories to warm your heart this holiday season. Included are five stories, each approximately 18-25 pages in length: THE KRINGLE EXPRESS: A businessman embarks on a trip he won in a contest, only to discover that it's not your average voyage; then halfway through he is reunited with someone in his life and they learn the true meaning of Christmas as they get ready to go to The Mainland, and it promises to be a vacation they will never forget. PLIGHT OF THE WITTERNS: A young girl named Suzanne documents her struggles with divorce and its nasty aftermath as she faces the possibility of getting kicked out of her home, all this while her mom is running for election. Then, one Thanksgiving, something mysterious-an act of nature, something else perhaps-helps to secure their dreams of a better life and Suzanne realizes the power of inner strength. THE WISDOM OF WALTER: Walter Mansfield is a slouch of a man working in sales who has a confidence problem; his team doesn't respect him. One day, the manager has a proposition for him-a new job opportunity in another division. The only drawback is that he would be gone for two weeks and he could miss the office Christmas party. But then, he is torn: does he leave his team behind and miss the office Christmas party or continue to be the office clown? In the end, Walter learns about the discouraging heartbreak of betrayal, but he also starts to see his team in a new light on Christmas Day. BLESS THE BENEFACTOR: A mysterious man takes a tour of the Old Saddleford House & Museum at the mercy of a good hearted ticket taker one December evening. As he navigates his way through the exhibits and meets the colorful characters therein, he learns something about himself and human nature. At the end, the reader learns who this man is and he has a powerful message for us all. THE INVESTMENT OF ALAN JOHNS: Alan has car troubles and has to walk one day to his new place of employment, IAJ bank, right after Christmas vacation. Along the way, he encounters a man who gets under his skin and makes him look bad in front of his boss. But Alan starts to see him in a different light when he discovers that this down and out drifter named Peter does a good thing for him. They begin to open up with each other-Alan talks about how one event on New Year's Eve changed his life and Alan does something for Peter that ultimately changes both of their lives.
