Book description
Whatever the celebration, whatever the day, whatever the occasion,
Helen Steiner Rice possessed the ability to express the appropriate
feeling for that particular moment in time.
Her positive attitude, her concern for others, and her love of God
are identifiable threads woven into her life and her work.
The role Christmas plays in an individual's life depends on the
interpretation of the event and varies from person to person and
family to family. In this collection of verses Helen Steiner Rice
simply and touchingly reaffirms the nature of faith and hope.
Widowed while in her thirties, Mrs Rice became a successful
businesswoman and lecturer, but found her most satisfying outlet in
writing verse for a prominent greeting card company. Her gift for
expressing familiar thoughts, coupled with her deep Christian faith,
resulted in many volumes of bestsellers, including
Someone Cares
,
Heart Gifts
,
Everyone Needs Someone
and
Loving Promises
. She died in 1981.
