The Bringing Truck is a story of the wonder and happiness of the Christmas season from a childs point of view. Ordinary delivery trucks become magical providers of Christmas joy in this tale of anticipation. It may bring back memories in all of us who are still children at heart of how really exciting the holiday season was as a child with so many good things and family times together. As the story begins, Halloween is over, and the children are hoping for some kind of fun or excitement. When a big delivery truck comes to their house, Grace bestows on it the name, The Bringing Truck. As she and her brother, Evan, look forward to the holidays, they watch for the Bringing Truck to drop off packages promised by their grandmother. They become impatient as the days grow shorter and wonder if their presents have been lost or forgotten. When Christmas Eve arrives, they are very downhearted that no presents have yet come. Later in the day, they finally hear the Bringing Truck pulling into the driveway and bringing with it an even greater surprise than they had hoped. The driver turns out to be perhaps more than just a delivery truck driver and leaves them all with a Christmas present they will never forget.
