Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Boy Who Brought Christmas" by Alice Morgan is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story takes place in the Appalachian mountains and follows young Grover Cleveland Ledbetter, a kind-hearted, adventurous orphan living with his grandfather. As Christmas approaches, Grover is determined to spread holiday cheer to the community, especially to those he feels have been overlooked, embodying the spirit of giving and kindness that defines the season. The opening of the book introduces us to Grover Cleveland Ledbetter and his grandfather, Old Man Ledbetter, as they embark on a quest to track down Santa Claus, whom Grover believes has neglected his family and others in their mountain community. With his loyal dog Dixie at his side, Grover demonstrates his empathy and desire to create a Christmas celebration for all, regardless of their differences in religious beliefs. The narrative sets a whimsical and nostalgic tone, exploring themes of community, generosity, and the innocence of childhood during the festive season.
