Christmas Trees & Monkeys — Daniel G. Keohane

This collection (the first from the immensely talented Daniel G. Keohane) includes four original stories and a brief introduction to each tale. Plus, here's one more reaon to purchase this title (straight from the author himself): "As with the print edition, 100 percent of all author royalties earned from the sale of this collection are being donated to the New England Multiple Sclerosis Society, in honor of my sister Anne. I figured I already got paid for most of these stories, anyway, so may as well let someone else benefit from them now - aside from you, dear readers."
