About The Mansion, 100th Anniversary Edition
Product Description At this time of the year my family knows that I will read again my Christmas treasury of books and ponder the wondrous words of the authors. First will be the Gospel of Luke even the Christmas story. This will be followed by A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, and finally, The Mansion by Henry Van Dyke. President Thomas S. Monson John Weightman wanted the best of everything. He surrounded himself with beauty and riches, and was very careful with how he spent his money. No pennies in beggars hats, he liked to say. Until one night he dreamed that he died . . . Finding himself with a group of travelers dressed in white, John joins them on their journey to the Celestial City where each individual will be rewarded with a mansion based on treasures set aside. Thinking that his mansion will be the most grand, John Weightman learns what it truly means to lay up treasures in heaven. The Mansion is a classic tale told at Christmastime that illustrates the importance of giving unselfishly. About the Author Henry Van Dyke was an early American poet who was born and raised in Pennsylvania. Later, he taught at Princeton University and lectured at the University of Paris. His works comprise over forty titles including The Mansion. Dan Burr earned a bachelor s degree in fine arts at Utah State University and a master s degree in illustration from Syracuse University. He and his wife, Patti, live with their two children and numerous animals on twelve acres of river bottom land in Tetonia, Idaho, a setting that provides great artistic inspiration.
