This is a story set during the Christmas season about a lonely little boy, a crusty, bitter, old man and how tragic circumstances bring them together. When he comes to live with his grandfather neither of them is prepared for the changes this brings. The book relates how the boy, Patrick, and his grandfather each journey through their own struggles. Patrick is a remarkable boy who touches the hearts of everyone he meets, including his social worker, his grandfather’s neighbour and a man who looks after him when he is in desperate need of help. The story portrays God’s love and forgiveness; how He changes hearts and heals relationships. This would be a good book to read together as a family.
