The listing, John Grisham's "Skipping Christmas" Hardcover has ended.
"Skipping Christmas", by John Grisham, is an entertaining holiday tale told in a sure, sly manner. This is the story of how Luther and Nora Krank decide to have a radically different holiday when their daughter leaves home to work for the Peace Corps in Peru. Members of a very close-knit community who enthusiastically partake in all things Christmas, the Kranks meet with much resistance to their getaway plan. They tough it out though, with Luther fighting the good fight and Nora going along for the ride. However, when their daughter Blair suddenly announces that she not only will be home for the holidays, but will bring along her new fiance', the Kranks have to ditch their dream cruise and go into overdrive. Somehow, they must recreate their whole traditional holiday celebrations in an insanely short amount of time. It takes a village to pull it all off, and as grudges give way and fences are mended, the spirit of the season is renewed.
