Tommy Trot's Visit to Santa Claus

by Thomas Nelson Page

Tommy Trot is a well-off boy from Virginia who receives numerous gifts at Christmas but never feels truly happy. He begins to notice Johnny, a poor neighbor boy, and witnesses his lack of possessions. This experience makes Tommy realize that true joy doesn't come from material things but from sharing and kindness. The story gently explores themes of generosity, materialism, and the importance of helping others, making it a suitable read for young audiences.
