Can this Scrooge learn to put on a good Christmas?
Dominick Decker’s wife’s last wish was that he and their daughter Jessie move to her hometown – Christmas Town, Maine. As a second generation repairman he doesn’t understand why Christmas is so important to everyone in Christmas Town. You put up a tree, buy some gift cards and order a pre-made turkey dinner from the grocery store, which leaves plenty of time for service calls in between. What more does he need to do? A lot if he’s to give his daughter the Christmas she deserves.
Enter Ruby Caldwell, owner of Santa School and trainer of “professional” Santas. Now that she’s been laid off from her day job, she needs to take Santa School from a part-time seasonal hobby to a full-time year-round operation. That requires a positive mindset, along with a healthy dose of creativity. Step one: Santa School for Busy Elves to train single dads like Dominick to put on a great Christmas by themselves. All she needs are a few willing dads and a don’t-quit smile. With a challenge like Dominick, let’s hope Ruby’s smile holds out this holiday season. $0.99 on Kindle.
