Story Synopsis
"There will be no Christmas Day this year!" That was the official announcement which all Hollanders heard in 1582. This believable yet fictional story of what could have happened to a young boy living in Holland that year will captivate children while focusing on the real meaning of Christmas. Peter understands for the first time that Christ, who was very rich, became very poor so that he, Peter, could become rich. On what would have been Christmas Day, Peter, now a child of God, celebrates in a unique way.
