Day 18 / 20 Days of Giveaways – FOR THE LOVE OF ST. NICK / Review, Tour & Giveaway
From the Publisher:
Two boys who have lost their mother tragically, worry they’ll never see their father,a Naval Commander, after he embarks on a secret mission with the United States military. After the boys are advised by their nanny to seek the help of St. Nick, the boys are shocked by an early Christmas visit.
About the Author:

Today Maccagnone lives
in Shelby Township with his wife and three children.
in Shelby Township with his wife and three children.
My Review:
This beautiful little novella, is not your typical Santa story.
It’s a touching memoir of a young boys love for his
deceased mother, his father (known as Commander), and his little brother.
It is also about pure simple faith.
The words flow across the pages, as gently as brook,
but culminate into a mighty waterfall.
I truly feel blessed, to have been able to share in Tigers memories.
Thank you Mr. Maccagnone.
Thank you Dorothy (Pump Up You Book Promotions)
