A Christmas Memory by Truman Capote
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is an unabridged selection from the story of the fruitcake-making Christmas shared by a seven-year-old boy and a sixty-ish uncomplicated woman who, very sadly, drifts off the way our elder friends and family do. This edition includes activities and exercises based on the text aimed at building reading comprehension in children. It is really a sad tale in total, about a friendless duo in a stark and small world... I wonder how children receive it.
