Book Description from the Front Cover Flap

In this radiant tale, a young boy in Japan celebrates his very first Christmas. Two cultures joyously combine for the day as the boy's mother shares a glimpse of her American childhood with her son.

Allen Say's glowing watercolors and affecting words paint a story rich with the holiday spirit - a story of family, of giving, of goodwill, and the hope for peace.
