This holiday tale will warm the hearts of readers and awaken them to a lovely dimension of Christmas.. Walter is headed for a holiday meltdown. He's surrounded by tacky and tinsel. He's had it with political correctness, goofy light displays, braggadocio Christmas letters, drunken Santas and the new moniker -- Sparkle Season. To top it off, he must negotiate with a salvage dealer, and a second-grade student who makes the five o'clock news. Walter's over-the-top assistant has decorated her minivan with a wreath, garland, twinkling lights and spray snow that says, "Jesus the Rsn for the Ssn" (she ran out of room for the vowels).

Catching Christmas, with a lovable cast of quirky characters, is packed with surprises including a few for Walter
