Beasley's Christmas Party
By Booth Tarkington
A young journalist walks past the house of Theophilus Beasley and sees him engaged in cheerful conversation… to people who aren’t there. Beasley may seem eccentric, but he’s known as a kind-hearted man, and he’s even preparing to run for governor. Still, why can we hear laughter and chatter spill from his house when he appears to be living alone? Surprisingly, Beasley is planning a great Christmas Party, except none of the townspeople have been invited. None, that is, except for a few souls who tend to be forgotten, even during this merriest time of year. And maybe Mr Beasley isn’t as mad as he seems… Imagination is magical; it can cure loneliness and bring joy to those around you, especially during the holiday! And for those who liked Dickens and “A Christmas Carol”, you’ll love this heartwarming tale.
