The Town That Forgot About Christmas Book

I enjoyed this book. The town in this book does not celebrate Christmas. Matthew comes to town, and is sad to learn the town doesn't remember the birth of Christ. He makes friends in the town, and gets the parents playing and spending time with their children. He is a carpenter, and he makes things, while the towns people come around to watch. They start asking him to do jobs for them around their homes, and he teaches the men. He carves figures for the children. Then he starts to carve large figures for a nativity. The town members come to watch, and he tells them the stories about Christ. Then the town folks start helping him carve and paint the figures. It's Christmas Eve, and there is no figure of the Christ child. He tells them the child will be there for Christmas. Then Matthew leaves town. One of the mother's brings her baby to place in the manager.
