Redheaded Robbies Christmas Story

One student from Mrs. Wallace's second grade class will be chosen to tell a special Christmas story at the school assembly. When Redheaded Robbie's name is pulled from the hat, the class groans. Poor Robbie! Whenever he is excited or nervous, his words come out all twisted and confused. How will he be able to tell his Christmas story at the assembly? Won't everyone laugh? With a little help from some friends, Robbie learns that it is not so much how a person speaks but what is said that matters the most.Bill Luttrell is a practicing attorney and lives near West Chester, Pennsylvania. "Redheaded Robbie" is his first children's book and was initially inspired by his listening to a less-than-inspiring Christmas Eve sermon.
