A dog named Christmas. [large print] Greg Kincaid.

Summary:

When Todd, a developmentally challenged young man still living on his parents Kansas farm, hears that a local shelter is seeking temporary homes for their dogs during the holiday week, he knows exactly what he wants for Christmas. Animals are Todd s first love, and his persistence quickly overwhelms his father s objections to befriending a canine a reluctance that proves to have a painful origin. The family takes in a very special animal, and the shelter s Christmas adoption program soon grows larger than anyone had hoped. By the story s end, Todd, with the help of a dog named Christmas, has taught an entire community the transformative power of goodwill and shared love a lesson for all seasons.
