A wounded warrior and his younger brother discover the true
meaning of Christmas in this timeless story of family bonds.
As far as ten-year-old Miller McClellan is concerned, it’s
the worst Christmas ever. His father’s shrimp boat is
docked, his mother is working two jobs, and with finances
strained, Miller is told they can’t afford the dog he
desperately wants. “Your brother’s return from war is our
family’s gift,” his parents tell him. But when Taylor
returns with PTSD, family strains darken the holidays.
Then Taylor’s service dog arrives—a large black
Labrador/Great Dane named Thor. His brother even got the
dog! When Miller goes out on Christmas Eve with his father’s
axe, determined to get his family the tree they can't
afford, he takes the dog for company—but accidentally winds
up lost in the wild forest. The splintered family must come
together to rediscover their strengths, family bond, and the
true meaning of Christmas
