  <default_description>Katherine O'Connor often spends her days at a cozy caf&#233; on Blossom Street in Seattle--where she writes Christmas letters for other people. She's good at making their everyday lives sound more interesting. More humorous. More dramatic.&lt;P&gt;  &lt;P&gt;But for Dr. Wynn Jeffries, who also frequents the caf&#233;, Christmas means lies and deception. In fact, the renowned child psychologist recommends that parents &quot;bury Santa under the sleigh.&quot; Katherine, however, feels that his parenting philosophy is one big mistake--at least, based on her five-year-old twin nieces, who are being raised according to his &quot;Free Child&quot; methods.&lt;P&gt;  &lt;P&gt;She argues with Wynn about his theories, while &lt;I&gt;he&lt;/i&gt; argues that her letters are nothing but lies. They disagree about practically everything--and yet, somehow, they don't really want to &lt;I&gt;stop&lt;/i&gt; arguing.&lt;P&gt;  &lt;P&gt;As the days--and nights--move closer to Christmas, Katherine and Wynn both discover that love means accepting your differences. And Christmas is about the things you share&amp;#133;.&lt;P&gt;</default_description>
