The Last Straw

Finding the Christmas spirit one piece at a time.

It's Christmas break at the McDonald house, but silent nights - and days - are nowhere to be found. With the children's constant bickering, pretty packages and a sweet-smelling tree don't come close to filling the McDonald home with the true spirit of the first Christmas. Then Mom remembers an old tradition of building a soft bed for Baby Jesus one straw at a time. Each time someone secretly does something nice for another family member, he or she gets to add a single straw to the manger. Soon the children's quarreling and negative feelings subside and the homemade crib is overflowing. But for one family member, a required act of kindness becomes more that he can take.

Inspired by a true story and filled with both heart and humor, The Last Straw may forever change the way your family celebrates Christmas.
