Journal Entry 1 by GrammarBroad from Baton Rouge, Louisiana USA on Saturday, June 19, 2004
 Hardback, 1st ed., November 2001. Mail released on 7-1-04 to Katilo.
"Imagine a year without Christmas. No crowded malls, no corny office parties, no fruitcakes, no unwanted presents. That’s just what Luther and Nora Krank have in mind when they decide that, just this once, they’ll skip the holiday altogether. Theirs will be the only house on Hemlock Street without a rooftop Frosty; they won’t be hosting their annual Christmas Eve bash; they aren’t even going to have a tree. They won’t need one, because come December 25 they’re setting sail on a Caribbean cruise. But, as this weary couple is about to discover, skipping Christmas brings enormous consequences--and isn’t half as easy as they’d imagined."

Not much more than a short story, is it?

Journal Entry 3 by katilo from Westmont, Illinois USA on Thursday, October 28, 2004
An amusing little story about one couple's attempt to skip Christmas, save some money and take a cruise. Of it all back fires in the end but I really enjoyed see how the neighbors pitched in and gathered around to help them out, creating a true Christmas spirit. Enchanting! A quick and enjoyable read! Thanks for sharing!
