About the Author
David A. Jacinto was born into a family living on the wrong side of the tracks and has been a storyteller ever since, some true and some not so much so. His faith-based stories are entertaining and humorous narratives on the challenges of growing into a successful and productive adult, and the trails of parenting where, as he puts it, “I have learned of the beauty and unmatched warmth and devotion that comes from a loving family.”
Now “Christmas Kindling” is available online at Amazon and in every bookstore where fine books are sold across the U.S., Canada, the UK, and Australia.
