This book is about an eight year old boy named Timothy, who is an only child raised by a single parent. Timothy anticipates waking to a Christmas tree filled with gifts; however, much to his dismay he is greeted by a giftless tree. Timothy almost loses his faith in the spirit of Christmas but his mother teaches him that it is in his most time of despair that he should have faith in God and how God moves in His own time. Just then there was a knock at the door ...and Timothy's Christmas is restored!
