Additional The Christmas Sweater Information

IF YOU COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE BY REVERSING YOUR BIGGEST REGRETS, SORROWS, AND MISTAKES...WOULD YOU?

When Eddie was twelve years old, all he wanted for Christmas was a bike. Although his life had gotten harder -- and money tighter -- since his father died - Eddie dreamed that somehow his mother would find a way to have his dream bike gleaming beside their modest Christmas tree that magical morning. What he got from her instead was a sweater. "A stupid, handmade, ugly sweater" that young Eddie left in a crumpled ball in the corner of his room.

Scarred deeply by the realization that kids don't always get what they want, and too young to understand that he already owned life's most valuable treasures, that Christmas morning was the beginning of Eddie's dark and painful journey on the road to manhood. It will take wrestling with himself, his faith, and his family -- and the guidance of a mysterious neighbor named Russell -- to help Eddie find his path through the storm clouds of life and finally see the real significance of that simple gift his mother had crafted by hand with love in her heart.

Based on a deeply personal true story, The Christmas Sweater is a warm and poignant tale of family, faith, and forgiveness that makes us question whether we really know what's most important in our own lives.

Written with sincere warmth and nostalgic wonderment this heartening book delivers an inspirational and honest story that will remain in your thoughts and spirit.

I do not appreciate Glenn Beck or his opinions which are often lacking in factual basis. This is a fairly good story which has undertones of his personal demons.

This was an interesting book. It was an inspirational novel about forgiveness. I passed it along to my daughter.

I so admire Glenn Beck but had never bought/read any of his books, so when I was shopping Amazon, decided to buy a few, and had heard so many great things on this book that it was the first one I bought/read. I could not lay this book down. Read it in 2 nights. Well written and in general, somewhat based on his life.From the depth of dispair to success - he has seen it all.A wonderful message in this book.Everyone I have loaned this book to has remarked what a great story it was and easy to read.
