Henry van Dyke 
The Mansion 

In this classic and timeless story, the great Henry van Dyke sets forth the ideals of kindness, sympathy, fellowship, and self-sacrifice that permeate the human soul. In our struggle to live our lives, The Mansion presents a message about the importance of charity to remind us of the true spirit of giving and family. The Mansion is a ‘must read’ right along with another all time favorite, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.
