Mandie and the Unwanted Gift (Mandie Books, 29) (Turtleback)

(Book #29 in the Mandie Series)

"I love reading Lois Gladys Leppard's books! I find it practically impossible to put them down!" writes a young reader from Northern Ireland.Mandie is excited about going home for Christmas, but she hasn't told her grandmother that she invited Jonathan Guyer and his father to visit them during the holidays. Will Mrs. Taft be angry with Mandie because she doesn't get along with Mr. Guyer? And Mandie hasn't told Joe that Jonathan is coming, and the two boys haven't gotten along well either. Will Joe be upset with Mandie?Then on a dark, cold night a mysterious gift is left on the doorstep of the Shaw house with an anonymous note attached that reads, "For Mandie." The box has fancy gift wrapping on the outside, but inside is what appears to be a childish jumble of holly and dirt and ribbons. Whatever could it be?Who sent Mandie the present? Could it be a treasure map? This description may be from another edition of this product.

Beautiful

This is an absolute gem of a book. I can't reccomend it highly enough, to readers of all ages. It's sweet, yet powerful, whimsical yet meaningful, fantastical yet so relevent.

Millions of You Should Read This

This novel was a great read! I chose this book for a unit in English class but soon it was more than a novel, it was an adventure. With every page I got drawn into it, reading more and more. This book is about a young boy named Damian who finds a lot of money just outside from his house when it was said to fall from the sky.
