"Imagine a year without Christmas. No crowded malls, no corny office parties, no fruitcakes, no unwanted presents. That's just what Luther and Nora Krank have in mind when they decided that , just this once, they'll skip the holiday altogether. Theirs will be the only house on Hemlock St. without a rooftop Frosty; they won't be hosting their annual Christmas Eve bash; they aren't even going to have a gree. They won't need one, because come Dec. 25 they're setting sail on a Caribbean cruise. But as this weary couple is about to discover, skipping Christmas brings enormous consequences - and isn't half as easy as they'd imagined" - excerpt from cover.
