In this heartwarming novel, follow the story of an old trapper, John Norton, as he spends Christmas Eve alone in his cabin in the woods. The warmth of the roaring fireplace, the presence of two loyal hounds, and a sturdy wooden table all contribute to the idyllic setting. But it is the old man's contemplation of the Bible that will truly captivate readers. With a simple message of giving to those in need, the trapper reflects on the state of the world and the value of following such wise words. As he delves deeper into the book, he discovers the story of the Saviour's birth, and the wonder of Christmas comes alive in his heart.
