From the projects of South Boston to drug infested suburban slums, the twelve Cunningham kids survived a life too harsh, even for hope. Yet, hope is what they lived on as they struggled to endure a private war raging around them, the emotional and physical scars now their only lasting memories. The Twelve Children Of Christmas is a celebration of family and hope-the hope of children. It is a collection of twelve Cunningham Christmas stories that recount their time together growing up and their inspirational ability to make something out of less than nothing. Whatever your religion, if any, The Twelve Children Of Christmas will remind you that there is something sacred about family that must be kept alive.
