How wonderful to sit down and just enjoy every word of a book . . . to look forward to the next page and the next and the next!! Such a wonderful story and so personal. I felt like I intimatley knew each character. What's more amazing is that this is a true story. Share this with the family, too. It's far to precious and redeeming to leave on the shelf.

What a nice, touching read The Christmas Box is. While it is short and simple, there is something raw and emotional about it, probably in the sentiments of opening your heart to others, being a good person, and the meaning of Christmas.
While I wouldn't pay full price for a paperback of this book, not to mention a hardcover version, it is definitly worthwhile if you can find a good used price.

This book showed you what really matters in life. Though it is sad it teaches a lesson that everyone should learn. It is a fairly short book that you'll never want to put down. I thouroughly enjoyed this fabulous book and it taught me a VERY important lesson, I'm sure it will do the same for you.

Jody Maier, Riverfront Book Club, Yonkers, New York
The Christmas Box was the December selection for the Riverfront Book Club. Richard Paul Evans writes a modern allegorical story in an empathic and sensitive prose style that appeals to a wide audience of readers. This touching story's central message of parental love is expressed through Christian imagery of God sending Jesus to live in the world. But one does not have to be Christian to appreciate the sequence of mysterious events that lead the main character to a transforming experience in which he is called to reorder his priorities.
Our group concluded that the popularity of this author's books, comes from the intense emotional impact they have on the reader and the desire of the reader to seek refuge from the anxiety, fears, and uncertainites of modern living. Mr. Evans has an ability to express human emotions and vunerabilities in ways that are understandable and accessible to the reader.
This book has become a Christmas classic because it is not rooted in fantasy, but instead in a realistic portrayal of the human quest for hope, connection, and fulfillment.
