From the insanity of the Christmas that brought a troop of clowns to the farm, to the poignancy of an old couple, recalling the most touching moment of their 60 Christmases together, this collection offers Anderson's unique reflections on both the hilarious and the touching sides of the holiday season. "Oh, that everyone would see what Christmas is really about! I long to have a simple Christmas, full of memories of family times and remembering why we celebrate Christmas. The commercialism has gotten to be too much. Thank you for a beautiful article. Run it again next year and maybe you can rid the world of some insanity!" -Traci Vujicich, syndicated columnist "I'm so excited about your articles! They just sparkle!" -Gloria Peck, Editor, Waterlines magazine "I'm always on the lookout for pieces that reflect solid values as well as a thoughtful writer-which you obviously are." -Linda Meehan, Editor, Country Heart magazine "You have a wonderful way with words." -Linda Radke, Managing Editor, Five Star Publications
