A Cup of Christmas Tea Tom Hegg Warren Hanson 9780931674082 Books

I purchased A Cup of Christmas Tea many years ago and read it aloud to my mom and three sisters who i had invited over for a Christmas Tea. Tom Hegg's poem so touched my heart that my voice broke towards the end of the reading. This is the story a man who goes to visit his old aunt whom he loved and spent time with as a child. He goes out of guilt and dreads what condition he'll find her in. To his surprise and delight she is still the same caring, loving woman of his youth and in spite of her physical limitations she still celebrates Christmas. As they drink tea and eat the cookies she's made, he finds that she is vibrant in spirit and draws him out just as she did when he was a boy. This is a book to treasure. It has inspired me as I have grown older and struggle with physical limitations. I bought this copy to send a friend who is wrote that she is finding it hard to care about Christmas as she did in hears past. My hope is t hat it inspires her as it did me.

A Cup of Christmas Tea Tom Hegg Warren Hanson 9780931674082 Books Reviews

Years ago a friend read this book to me over a cup of tea during the Christmas season. I thought that was so sweet, I bought myself a copy. I have continued the tradition with many friends over the years. This year when I looked for my copy, I couldn't find it. So checked and found a replacement copy. In so doing, I found there is a sequel which I also ordered from the sweetest book seller, BONNIE TAGS. The day my copy of the original book, A CUP OF CHRISTMAS TEA arrived, my husband found my original copy! That's ok, next year I'll have a copy of this lovely book to give as a gift!
The book is short, I expected a longer read. Kids were not interested - perhaps they could not relate yet having no fragile old relatives. I found the rhyme a bit forced and the reading not really enjoyable. It was ok, but I will not be re-reading it next year.
We often forget the nice people we have known as we grow away from our childhood and get busy being adults. We forget the charm of quiet conversation and a warm cup of tea shared with an older friend or relative. The lessons of life learned as we sip our tea and nibble our dainty sandwiches fade into the past. This little gem takes us back to a quieter, reflective time and helps us put things in proper perspective. Whether you read this during the holidays or just on a solitary afternoon, you will smile and go fix yourself a cup of tea. You might even invite your next door neighbor over! Really delightful...

This is an old classic tale told in poetic form about a young man and an old aunt who he fondly remembered as a young boy. The poetic story begins with his hesitation to pay his old aunt a visit because of the problems she has remembering things. Since he is a young man he cannot relate to the common problems of old age. Nevertheless, he decides to visit his old aunt and he learns it is never too late to learn something of value from his wonderful aunt.

After a long talk a with his aunt, where memories of his boy hood Christmas memories came flooding back, his aunt made the tea. Together they sat drinking "A cup of Christmas Tea.

In conclusion, this is a timeless poetic tale that is a joy to read.

Rating 4 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author The Samurai Heart An old warrior's poetic tribute)
I bought this book as a Christmas present after reading reviews. I was not disappointed! I loved it so much that I’m going to also order one for myself. A beautiful story!
Bought this copy to share with a friend...we are both in the stage of life where we are caring for elder relatives and so could relate to the touching theme of this book...reminder to cherish and share all the good times/memories and make new ones while the time is still there to do so. Would recommend...even though Christmas themed, the message is not seasonal.
This is a book that we have always read each and every CHRISTmas but had lost our copy somehow. It has been a family tradition for about 18 years and will continue to be so. It has the most meaningful message in it about what CHRISTmas is all about with the exception of JESUS CHRIST. It's about putting others first.
I would recommend it to everyone to share with your family and maybe start a family tradition.
