 | Miracle on 34th Street by Elizabeth Davies, Patricia DiBenedetto Snyder, Tomie dePaola, Valentine Davies, Mountain Community Theatre Staff
Bustling New York City has lost its Christmas spirit to tawdry commercialism . . . until a white-haired old gent by the improbable name of Kris Kringle works a special magic down on 34th Street. The children know he's for real. But can the grown-ups open their eyes long enough to believe? Valentine Davies' treasured story -- perhaps best known to millions of people in its classic film version -- comes to life in this delightful book for children of all ages. The text is perfect for reading aloud, while nineteen exquisite full-color paintings by the acclaimed children's illustrator Tomie dePaola capture Kris Kringle with wonderful detail and character. Brimming with nostalgia, hope, and tender humor, Miracle on 34th Street reminds readers that, as Kris says, underneath all the hurry and bustle people still believe in Santa Claus .
