really liked it

I hate to admit this, but I think "A Christmas Story"the movie, is better than the book. I know, quite a rarity, but in my humble opinion, true.

Jean Shepherd wrote these five unrelated novellas. Someone then took them, poured them all into a bowl, stirred them around, and out popped a heck of a good movie.

Suzy I also love the movie and this book. These stories were originally published in a larger essay collection In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash. You might enjoy listening to Jean Shepherd tell the central story of the movie from his 1974 broadcast of his radio show.


Madeline Thank you, I'll take a look.
