Inhaltsangabe

Snow! Seven-year-old Mark is entranced by it! Could the snow be coming from a snow machine in the sky? Quick as you please, Mark runs outside to see. As he looks up, a tiny snowflake drifts onto his nose. It is so pretty that it must be ... The Most Beautiful Gift.
This is the wondrous tale of Mark and his snowflake. As he handles the delicate flake with extreme care, Mark is amazed by its exquisitely lacy shape. Then and there, he decides to give it to the kindest person he can find; a gift for someone who deserves it.
First Mark takes it to a businessman, who wants to dissect it so that he can sell the pieces for profit. Then he takes it to a doctor, but the doctor wants to cut it up to for scientific reasons. And so Mark turns elsewhere. In his quest to do right by the snowflake, he will discover some amazing things about its magical spirit ... and about the true value and meaning of Christmas.
Enchantingly told, this charming book is the perfect holiday gift: a heartwarming fable for all ages to be treasured by young and old - parents, children, and friends alike.
