Gideon's Gift

by Karen Kingsbury

     Do you believe in Christmas miracles?  Well Gideon sure does she has one this year she really wants.  She wants Earl, a man down at the homeless shelter to smile.  Earl is a grumpy homeless man who just wants to be left alone.
    Gideon's Gift is a short book about a girl with a big heart.  Gideon has leukemia, but that doesn't stop her from spreading some love around.  Even though it is nowhere near Christmas time right now it was still fun reading this book.  It will make you smile from ear to ear.
