Teaser Tuesday - The Sparkle Box

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along, so I thought I would play for fun! Just do the following:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers! 

As they stopped at a traffic light, Sam noticed someone on a bench, curled up and sleeping.

Snowflakes swirled through the air as Sam and his mom stopped to look in the toy store window.  With Christmas only a few weeks away, Sam needed to make his Christmas list.  He tugged on his mom's sleeve and pointed to the train.  He loved the shiny red engine.
