Want More From Kyle?

Kyle published Manny’s Christmas in 1998. It’s his only book, and he doesn’t plan to write any more.

I’ve made this website so those who have read the book can post a review, give feedback, or beg for more. Kyle knows nothing about this (as of Nov. 2008). I will print the feedback and give it to him for Christmas.

    I really enjoyed reading Manny’s Christmas. It had a wonderful message and got me into the true spirit of Christmas!
    Thanks

  2. Danielle Jackson Says:

    Great story! For me a message that hit home was gratitude. Gratitude for the “things” in life and especially being surrounded by family during the holidays. The true meaning and joy of Christmas is appreciated by those who look past themselves. Thanks!

  3. Vincent Arcuri Says:

    I’m reading Manny’s Christmas and love the story. Kyle is foolish for not writing another book. Get started with another. It’s really great story. It deserves to be noticed by Paramount Pictures.

  4. Amy Nelson Says:

    In an increasingly selfish and materialistic world this book was a reminder that the true meaning of Christmas still exists in the hearts of those that choose to remember it. Beautiful.

  5. Shanna Myers Says:

    I loved Manny’s Christmas, and the message it brought at such a nice time of year. I learned not to take anything for granted and be thankful for what I have. Thank you for the book, it will be one I read at Christmas time year after year.

  6. Mike Buckley Says:

    I’ve just ordered the book. I’ll post a review here after I’ve read it. I ordered the book because I admire your initiative to put up a web site for your dad’s book and promote it through social media. If more Americans would take action to create wealth rather than waiting to win the lottery, we wouldn’t have economic problems.

    Congratulations and keep up the good work!

    Very well-written with such great imagery I felt like I was there. Thank you for the great reminder of what is truly important, not only around the holidays, but all the time.

  8. Chanelle Says:

    A reminder to look beyond ourselves and serve others. Many sacrifices of others go un-noticed and unappreciated. This was a reminder to love others as Christ has loved us. Worth reading.
