To 11-year-old Minnie Swift, Christmas, 1932, is not going to be the time of bounty she's used to. Instead, it has become the "Time of the Dwindling." The Great Depression has changed everything: Minnie's father is working fewer and fewer hours, her hungry family eats more and more aspic and "rumor of pork" (high up on the Vomitron, a zero-to-ten scale Minnie and her brother have invented to determine the vileness of their meager dinners), and a tiny orphan girl has joined their family from Heart's Bend, Texas. Minnie finds a worthy outlet in her daily journal, in which she records the sometimes troubling, sometimes exhilarating experiences of one winter month in Indianapolis during the depression. Nothing can subdue Minnie's lively spirit, although the disappearance of her father challenges her sorely.
Kathryn Lasky's latest addition to the Dear America series is chock-full of period details: Greta Garbo's hairstyle, The Shadow radio program, Charlie Chan, Hooverville shantytowns, Buck Rogers, Amelia Earhart, and phrases like yee gads and go-to-the-dickens. Minnie is an exuberant and witty chronicler of her family life, as well as the world outside. Young readers will come away from Christmas After All with a strong image of life in the 1930s, and a sense of the resiliency and ingenuity of many Americans during that deeply troubled time. A historical note and photos follow the diary, providing background to help readers understand the era in which the fictional Minnie lived. (Ages 9 to 14) --Emilie Coulter

Christmas After All
Extra Extra Read All About It Great Christmas StoryYou will love this book. If your down in the dumps then you should read this book. It will boost your spirit back where it needs to be. Christmas after all is very enjoyable! If you like reading like I do you should read this book! Christmas After All takes place during the Great Depression. Minnie the main character is not dissapointed that Christmas is going to be during the Great Depression. If you like mysterys like me then you will love this book. In the story Minnie's family can not affrod to buy Christmas gifts, so guess what Minnie and her cousin, Willie Faye do, they make their own presents out of chickin feathers. But something sad happens in the story. Her father goes MISSING!! If you live in Indianapolis then you live close to where this story takes place. Minnie lives in caramel on Meridian street at 450. My favorite part is when thier chicken gets it leg froze to the trash can and later on it turns black and falls off. Also when Lady (her sister)dies her hair orangatang red and has to shave it all off. Minnie's real name is Minerva. This book is the best Dear America book I have ever read! You will love this book about Christmas!
A Christmas You Will Never ForgetHave you ever read a book that touch your heart so much that it send chills up and down your spine? I have, and the book that sent me these emotions was, "Christmas After All".
The setting of "Christmas after All", is what really interested me to read this book. The setting of this book was in Indiana during the 1930s, and the reason why I was so interested in it was because I live in Indiana. I just love to hear about our history, and what life was like back then. The special part about this book that really touched me was that it was written about living through the depression. My grandma lived during the depression and she told me stories about how life was like back then, and I thought it was really neat to compare that to this story.
This book was amazing and so entertaining, that I couldn't put it down. I kept imagining myself there in that time period, and just trying to get by like they did. It just made my heart break, because I feel so lucky to have what I have now. If you ever want to learn about Indiana history, the depression, or if you are just looking for a quick read that is enjoyable. I highly recommend you read this fantastic book.

Not really usefullThe person who buys this book thinks it is good for ALL Suzuki Swifts.......that's not true. I own a Suzuki Swift Gti 1.3 4 cylinder DOHC, and this book tells almost NOTHING about it, just some references here and there, it may be good for a 1.0 liter, 3 cylinder Swift (although I doubt it)....money thrown to the waste basket!
Damn Good BookI wrote my first review 5 months ago. During that time I have gotten 5 emails- about one every month or so asking "How do you rate this book?" I've had 5 months to rely on this book- and its saved me 400 bucks. Someone sent me an email quesiton to me tonight and I delted it by accident (I'm on my laptop and it just got connected to the net ok?) and so I'm writing here to help out the guy who emailed me with a quesiton about a 1994 Swift 1.3 liter Lsi. Yes you need this book- you just don't know that yet. The rest of you- yes, if you have a suzuki you need this book. OK, its 9 PM and its bedtime. Good luck everyone!- Larry Trail, Port Orchard, WA
FINALLY!!Wonderful book, and is totally complete. But,,,Both Haynes and Chiltons should be ashamed of the incredably piss poor way they've sat with they're thumbs up there asses on these cars. Look- The Offical Suzuki Books are like 250 bucks each, and one is sheet metal, one is mechanical and the 3rd is electrical. Supposedly Chiltons and Haynes puts out the book 3 years after a car is made so do it yourselfers have this information. Well I have a 1995 Suzuki Swift,,,,and I waited,,,,and waited,,,,and waited,,,,and wrote a few letters. Then finally, 7 years after my Suzuki was built they publish the book? Well if anyone from Haynes or Chiltons is reading this- first off tens of thousands of people depended on you for this information. You screwed them over- I'm very disappointed in the publishers. Next time I buy a car- I'll simply order the manuals from the factory as a condition of the sale and cut both Chiltons and Haynes out of the money loop. Any Questions?

This is about a family who gets a new member, their cousin, Willie Faye, from Texas. She is very different from all of the family, except for Minnie who is the same age. This book explains how many people loose thier jobs, and Minnies father was one of them. Suddenly something happened; someone was missing but you'll have to read the book to find out!
This book has a lot of surprises, and the characters are always coming up with exciting ideas. For example,Minnie and Willie Faye don't have any money, so they make their Christmas gifts. Now you'll never belive what they use to decorate the gifts, but chicken feathers from their very own live chickens! There are many more exciting events through out the book!
I think this author was trying to give the message that no matter how poor, or how rich you are you still have the love in your heart that somehow everyone will get a chance to live the life they deserve.
