Summary: WHY THE CHIMES RANG
Review: For almost thirty years, my parents have hosted a black tie tree decorating party at their home in Tennessee. It is a tradition to read this heartwarming story after dinner. We (30 people) gather in the living room and are quickly reminded of the true meaning of Christmas.!!!!

Summary: A fantastic story
Review: I remember reading this when I was young--it belonged to my mother when she was a young girl--it has always been my favorite Christmas book, capturing the true meaning of Christmas and of giving in a simple yet rich and beautiful story. If I could have but one Christmas book this would be the one.

Summary: WHY THE CHIMES RANG
Review: This is a truly endearing story about two young boys who dream of going to a special Christmas service at a somewhat distant church. It will take the boys all afternoon to walk to the church. Along the way they come upon a woman who has fallen in the snow and is in desperate need of help. The older brother stays with her and sends "Little Brother" on to the church for the Christmas service; afterwhich, he is to return with help. The Christmas Chimes in this church have not been heard for many years, but they will ring tonight. All because of two little boys, who in all of their innocence, truly understand about giving and Christmas.
