The Christmas Secret (Also published as: Jose's Christmas Secret)
Phooey avatar reviewed on


It is winter in New York City. The wind is cold. It blows through the cracked walls of the apartment where Jose and his mother and his little brother live. "Mami must be cold with just a cotton blanket," Jose thinks. It is up to me to get her a warm one. Christmas is coming in six more days. God, please let me get Mami a blanket for Christmas."

Good reading for young readers.
