About this listen

 Step into a heartwarming yet poignant tale reminiscent of Dickens, where a melodramatic folksy Christmas story unfolds. With echoes of Tiny Tim, this narrative weaves together themes of compassion and romance, all set against the backdrop of early 1900s American culture. While we are drawn to sympathize with the disabled child, the subtle oversights towards the black servants serve as a reflection of the era. Tarkingtons writing champions kindness and employs a gentler humor, distinguishing it from many contemporary authors. (Arnold Banner)Copyright Kids Stories and Comedy Drama & Plays
