A New Christmas Tale About The Joy Of Giving

By: Stacey Moore

Dick Van Dyke will forever be remembered as Bert in the classic movie "Mary Poppins." Now he touches a whole new generation of fans with the beautifully illustrated Christmas book "Mr. Finnegan's Giving Chest" (Shadow Mountain, $19.95). Van Dyke portrays the loveable toymaker Mr. Finnegan, and also reads the book on an accompanying CD.

Mr. Finnegan is no ordinary toymaker. Peering into his glistening snow globe, the white-haired, bespectacled toymaker knows he must intercede in the life of one little girl in the small town of Pinebough. His providential meeting with Maggie, a resentful girl who doesn't believe in the magic of Christmas, is the beginning of a series of miracles that will change her heart forever.

Told with delightful whimsy and poignancy, author Dan Farr has created a Christmas story that will resonate with both young and old. His book is available nationwide.
