Gift of Kindness

Kindness costs nothing and gives so much... Two children discover the true gift of giving in this tale of wonder and whimsy from Sarah, Duchess of York. A bearded old man and his lively small dog Snowball transform Jack and Mary's visit to Winter Wonderland at Hyde Park into a magical experience after they accept his offer of a chestnut. Suddenly they are embraced by the delicious aroma of cinnamon, apple tart and gingerbread and surrounded by people dressed in old-fashioned clothes. Their step back in time to the Victorian era leads Jack and Mary to a poorhouse for orphans, where they invite the mean spirited old woman in charge to visit the fair with them. Will their simple act of kindness bring joy to the heart and transform the lives of the children in her care?
