Charlie Riverton is a young boy, a sixth-grader, living in a
small town known as Briarcliff Manor, a suburb in Manhattan. With Christmas
right around the corner, the whole village is busy with preparations and indulging
in uplifting activities. However, as always, Charlie's group of friends is trying
to experiment with their newfound freedom, interest in girls, and other pre-teen
shenanigans. This Christmas, a newcomer will be joining the village. Charlie,
along with his new friend, plans an epic Christmas surprise for the whole
village. His efforts and encounters toward making the festivities more
miraculous are already making an impactful change in the lives of those around
him.
A Gift Most Rare
by Tom Leihbacher features true Christmas spirit characteristic of the early
1970s when such events were focused on thanking God and showing love and
support for your loved ones. The book is a wholesome read that will spark the
readers’ Christmas spirit this year. Charlie’s relationship with his friend and
the newcomer is unique and special enough to take us back to our childhood days.
Tom Leihbacher’s distinct storytelling techniques are apparent throughout the
tale. The protagonist, although very young, displays affection and care in the
most insightful and inspirational manner.
This book will serve as a great read for those interested in
feel-good stories and a glimpse into simpler times. The prose contains a
magical tale of a young boy changing the lives of those around him just in time
for Christmas and changing the whole community’s perspective through his heartfelt
contributions. A must-read if you want to enjoy a pleasant experience through
and through.
