Augustus Greatorex, a proud merchant, believes himself a good father-yet his little daughter Phosy, quiet and tenderhearted, longs for affection he never gives. When she misunderstands a Christmas sermon, her innocent faith sets in motion a series of events that awaken every heart in the household.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough sorrow, the heartbreak of loss, and unexpected grace, MacDonald weaves a moving story of transformation. A servant's pride is broken, a craftsman's despair redeemed, and a father's heart restored to his child. The Gifts of the Child Christ reminds readers that the truest gifts of Christmas are not found beneath the tree, but within the love that reflects the Father-heart of God Himself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGently updated for today's readers and graced with \u003cstrong\u003echarming illustrations by Sarah Geesey\u003c\/strong\u003e and an \u003cstrong\u003eafterword by Mandy Pallock\u003c\/strong\u003e, this beautiful edition invites families to slow down, gather close, and remember the wonder of being truly seen, known, and loved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.22 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 11, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47065816236171,"sku":"9798988478966","price":22.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/2579\/7259\/files\/k7mn5ypdKi9798988478966.webp?v=1779713424","url":"https:\/\/thetaletrade.com\/products\/the-gifts-of-the-child-christ-annotated-and-illustrated-a-classic-christmas-tale-gently-updated-for-todays-readers-paperback","provider":"The Tale Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
