Description
The carefully wrapped present was perched half-hidden on his parents' closet shelf. Arthur, a little boy with a very large imagination, feverishly tired to guess what it might contain. A pet? A shiny trumpet? A new computer? The possibilities are almost endless. All for him and him alone, until the doorbell interrupted his reverie. What happened next is a remarkable and soul-satisfying reminder that the act of sharing is perhaps the greatest present of all.
