"People are upset that Christmas is becoming so commercialized and many are ready to get rid of Santa, who is becoming an icon of consumerism. But, Santa is part of our childhood, part of our culture, and tradition. In our hearts, we want to hold on to what he truly stands for without 'throwing the baby out with the bath water.' Gift of a Servant gives people a way to do this by explaining his mission of love." Tamara Amos, author of Gift of a Servant.
Gift of a Servant earned the following awards and honors this year:
Gift of a Servant is the fictional tale of a father who blames Santa for the holiday hysteria that has taken over Christmas. He blames Santa and decides to wait up for him on Christmas Eve to demand his resignation. When Santa comes, however, he gives Dad an unexpected gift: a glimpse into the heart of his mission to bring "gifts of love from Heaven above" to God's children, reminding them that Christmas is about sharing the love of Christ.
Written in prose by Tamara Amos and richly illustrated by David W. Luebbert, Gift of a Servant will be released by Mystical Rose Inspirations, October 1, 2013 in deluxe hardcover, kindle, and e-book editions for this Christmas season.
