Overview

Oliver and Toby have a respect for each other, masked by their competitive leanings. They both learn a valuable lesson; Oliver takes an opportunity to help and include Toby, and Toby learns that a friendship offered needs to be accepted to achieve a form of redemption. The real meaning of Christmas is fully explored in this book and the conclusion is both satisfying and, at the same time, astonishing. There are more things in heaven and on earth to occupy their minds, and it becomes apparent that there are not always easy explanations for some of the strange and wonderful things that begin to happen as they celebrate the onset of Christmas. There are acts of kindness and grace that are repaid in mysterious ways that cannot be explained if we continue to be blind to magic and the power of love.

About the Author

David Naugton Leavy was born in Grappenhall, Cheshire. His parents eloped from Ireland to get married in England in 1942. Their three sons all attended grammar school and David went to Christ's College, Liverpool, where he met his future wife. Eventually, after spells as a teacher of English, Physical Education and Social Studies at St Aelred's School in Newton-le-Willows, two spells at Culcheth High School, he emigrated with his wife, Veronica, to New Zealand to teach English. He became principal of St Patrick's College, Silverstream, Wellington, before a final stint at Canterbury University as Dean of College House. He has two sons: Austin, married to Sarah; and Dominic, married to Ana, all working in or near London, and raising families.
