A Brief Comment (150 char max / 25 word max)

Article:	Gail Rock's books about small-town living conjure images that transcend generations "How come you haven't got your Christmas tree up yet?" Carla Mae asked. "Oh," I said, trying not to show embarrassment. "We don't want one." "How come?" she asked, sounding surprised. "They're just a waste of money," I said, parroting the argument my father had given me. "Besides, we're going to Uncle Will's to open presents, and he has a tree." I could tell the reasoning wasn't going over any better with Carla Mae than it had with me. - Addie Mills in "The House Without a Christmas Tree" It's been more than 30 years since author Gail Rock penned that story of a feisty little girl and the stubborn father who wouldn't allow a Christmas tree in their Nebraska home.
