Tinker's Christmas is the story of a young elf who is trying to find
his place in the world. Very shy and very clumsy, Tinker is passed along
from one job to the next until he is eventually assigned the job as Chief
Mechanic of the Village Express. When the reindeer come down with the
chicken pox a week before Christmas, it is Tinker to whom Santa turns to
find another means to deliver the toys. Tinker’s Christmas is a story
about belief—belief in ourselves, belief in each other, belief in something greater than ourselves.
A story for young and old alike, Tinker's Christmas will premier as a radio drama on December 13th 2008 with original music composed by Danny Smith of Night Sky Music Studio and will air on several radio stations throughout Georgia in the month of December. A fully dramatized abridged edition of the radio drama is available at www.tinkerschristmas.com. Tinker's Christmas is a hardback book, fully and beautifully illustrated by Barbra K. Mudd.
