The Brown Family Christmas Story


Book Description

This book is my family's true Christmas story. My mother and her sister lived with my grandparents in Plainfield, New Jersey, in the mid-1930s. My mother (Martha) would still get excited whenever she told me this story. It's a story about the real Christmas spirit of giving, which continues through the Brown family generations. It's interesting to note that most people who read this story automatically concluded that my grandparents were affluent with some wealth. However, they were quite the opposite. My grandfather was a butler (not at the White House), and my grandmother was a cook, but they still had hearts to give. I pray that after reading this story that giving becomes the primary element of your Christmas. Be Blessed and Merry Christmas.

Something was coming and the dogs were afraid. Diamond rolled over in her bed and fell back into a deep sleep. She could have sworn she heard noises outside but then people always checking her Uncle early in the morning. She was falling back into a deep sleep when she heard a strong thud. Diamond looked out the window, the place was chillingly silent. She knew what that silence meant, she had experienced it several times over the years. It was the sound of catastrophe.

John Brown: Sinner or saint? Freedom fighter or terrorist? He personified performance, acting when no one else sharing his antislavery views did.
